    Worrisome CHTs on an Overhauled Engine and New Engine Monitor

    So, I bought a Piper PA-28-181 with an overhauled (complete) Lycoming O360-A4M back in December. The engine now has about 175 hours. I installed a JPI EDM 830 engine monitor back in June and I (and my local A&P) are perplexed by the indications. My CHTs rocket up to 360-370 just on taxi (mixture...

    JPI EDM 700 vs Insight G2

    I’m looking to upgrade our current single cylinder engine monitor instrument to an engine monitor that can read all 6 cylinders. Our mechanic recommended the JPI EDM 700 and the Insight G2. As far as I can tell, the main difference is the no color vs color display but I’m not too familiar with...

    G5 & CGR-30 anyone?

    Hi all, I'm looking for someone who has a Garmin G5 and EI CGR-30 engine monitor (different combinations will also work) and is interested in getting a single "picture" from sync'd logfiles, see attachment for example. Thanks, Pat

    CGR-30P vs EDM-900

    For the last few years I've been running an edm830 and I'm happy with it. However, some of my primary gauges have started to go out and rather than throw money at repairing them I'm now looking to upgrade to a new unit that can replace them (and also upgrade to Cies fuel senders). I've looked at...

    EI UBG-16 Channel Mapping to MUX-8A

    Hey Yo's: So the Tomahawk I purchased came with what at the time of the demo flight and when I took delivery was simple noted as "OK, one of those engine gauges that all the old dudes used to get hyper focused on and always talk about". I had never been taught how to use them, taught my...

    Is It Better to Fly at 55% Power or 75% Power, in Terms of Engine Health?

    Sometimes the time saved flying at 75% power outweighs the potential gas saved by flying at 55% power. So why not fly at 75% power all the time? My question is, in terms of overall engine health, is it better to fly at 55% power? Or is it better to fly half a cross country flight at 55% and the...

    CGR-30P - Jumpy Readings

    We have a CGR-30P in a C182, installed about 4 years ago. It periodically gives readings across all parameters very high or very low (fast jumps - then back to correct readings). Have rechecked connections and grounding (2 different shops). Getting it looked at again, but wondering if anyone has...

    Engine Monitor Installation How-To (Video)

    I recently (just before Oshkosh) ditched my factory engine gauges and EDM 800, and installed a JPI EDM 930 instead. If you wonder what it takes to do that, you may find some useful information in this video. We went with the overlay panel option (as opposed to a full new instrument panel) for...
