Oil Temperature Sensor
The oil temperature sensor needs to be installed
according to the directions of the engine
manufacturer. Dynon Avionics sells oil temperature
sensors with both 5/8-18 UNF (Dynon P/N 100409-
001) and 1/8-27 NPT (Dynon P/N 100409-000)
threads. Ensure that you have the right sensor for your engine.
Using a crush washer (not provided) between the sensor and
the engine case, tighten the sensor according to your engine
manufacturer’s recommendations.

Route the wire from pin 7 on the 37-pin harness to where the
oil temperature sensor is mounted. When routing the wires,
make sure that they are secured, so they will not shift position
due to vibration. Strip ¼” of insulation off the end of the w

As mentioned in the Grounding section on page 2-2, the oil temperature sensor is very
susceptible to voltage differences between the engine case and the negative terminal of the
battery. Ensure that solid, thick, and short electrical connections exist between the engine and
battery ground.
Fuel Pressure Sensor
First, mount the fuel pressure sensor to a fixed location
using an Adel clamp or other secure method. The fuel
pressure sensor must not be installed directly to the
engine due to potential vibration problems. Next,
connect the fuel sensor to the engine using appropriate
hoses and fittings. Its pressure port has a 1/8-27 NPT pipe thread fitting; you may need adapters
to connect to the pressure port on your engine. Locate the correct fuel pressure port for your
engine. This port must have a pressure fitting with a restrictor hole in it. This restrictor hole
ensures that, in the event of a sensor failure, fuel leakage rate is minimized, allowing time for an
emergency landing.
