    Mep-802a aux fuel pump trips breaker?

    Sometimes I think the engineers just need something to do to justify their wages. That would explain why something so simple gets way over-engineered 🤪

Unlike the fuel gauge sending unit which is basically just a variable resistor, the dual float the we’re talking about in this thread I believe is more of an on/off switch for two different purposes. One float I believe is to activate the low...

    I was thinking that you or @kloppk could design one, build it and then market it here on this forum 😇

    But, we can't get these sending units with brass floats unfortunately.
