My floscans tell me that I can't keep up with you guys on trips without hemmoraging money. That's why I'm "Pokey."
I have also found the totalizers (digital display of total gallons consumed inside the analog gauge) to be obscenely accurate. Due to erratic behavior, I've replaced both senders and both gauges since I got the boat. Now my dilemma is that the port engine seems to burn 4gph more than the stbd at 3400rpm. Weird.
Nice job Robert!

Paul, you can buy factory direct. They will tell you the right instruments for your engines :wink:

Here's what I have...

I didn't do the original install but I did replace everything but the wiring. New gauges, new senders. Previous owner installed the system. The gauges were $125 each and senders were also $125 each. If you call and speak to them they are extremely knowledgeable and accessible. I didn't need a pulsation damper b/c the spin on fuel/water separator acts as a pulsation damper.

I used Floscan N2TD-235-2K. this is what the dude at Floscan told me I needed based on CAT 3116 engines. I got them from stuff4toys. com Here is the link. This was the best price I found.
