The output is 0-5volts.  I  talked to them at S&F.  I am using the Blue =
Mountain EFIS.  Dave Bertram

  Subject: REFLECTOR:Skysport fuel level probe


  Does anybody know the signal output from a Skysport, capacitance type =
fuel level probe?  I bought it a few years back intending to use a =
Westach (or Mitchill) panel gauge, and got a probe for a 0 - 90 Ohm =
gauge.  Now I want to run the signal to my engine monitor system with =
digital display.



  I don't know what the signal output from the probe is - or the range.  =
I have called and e-mailed Skysport, and all I have been able to do is =
confirm that it is for a 0-90 Ohm gauge, which doesn't answer the =
question.  Further inquiry has so far gone unanswered.  I'd like to =
avoid , if possible, uninstalling the probe to make measurements just =
for concerns of leaks; and I'm not ready to fill the tank with fuel.



  Figured it couldn't hurt to ask, I've gotten lots of useful input from =
this group over the years; and it is greatly appreciated.



  Al
