Peace of Mind is Priceless
One of the BEST investments that I made on my A36TC was CiES fuel senders. Gone are my days off time/burn/fuel because Original Beechcraft gauges are sometimes "ideas of amount of fuel on board" and other times "No idea of fuel on board."
After spending lots of money on overhauling senders and fuel quantity circuit boards, etc. just to have this idea of fuel onboard from unreliable (and not to the 1/10th gallon of fuel on board) I [purchased] the Cies senders and WISH that I had done that very first thing when I bought my [OEM senders] 9 years ago. Now I KNOW EXACTLY what I have on board to a “T” at any given time. The peace of mind that comes with that is priceless.
Are they expensive? Yes. Did I hate to spend that money after [investing in] others over the previous few years? Absolutely. Do I regret it? Not at all. Quite the contrary. As soon as I got my plane home from the seller, I should have immediately pulled the old senders and threw them in the trash. Dip your tanks, vary quantity with eyeballs, have a good watch and do your fuel calculations until you save enough money for the CiES senders and you won’t be like me, having spent way more on fuel gauges than you had too. I bet you will eventually end up with CiES senders anyway.
