Brief Description:  Capacitence Fuel Indicator System #1

I spend most of my 1:30 scratching my head on the plans regarding the fwd attach bracket rivet holes before deciding to move on to another task and wait on my flop tube hardware.

I went with the optional capacitence fuel indicating system as it seemed like a popular choice among builders, didn't cost any more, is more compatible with most EFIS systems, and seemed simpler than floats.

Installation involved locating a probe (plate) on each end of the fuel tank and match-drilling it per the plans. I then drilled, deburred, dimpled, and riveted nut plates onto each probe where it attaches for the left tank only.
