REFLECTOR: Franklin injector port

[Michael Watson]

Larry,

That's great. My last annual I had all 80/80 the A&P could not believe
that after ten years the engine could be in such good shape. See what
changing your oil every 25 hrs. and adding AV Blend can do for you.
Great engines aren't they.

I have the fuel injector rails connected to each manifold, but I only use
them for priming. $1800.00 for the pair. Ouch. I figured that if I ever
had a fuel pump go south, I can use the electric pump and the primer
switch to limp home.
