Tim,

“Your engines” say QSB 6.7, so obviously you do not have these installed with these.. Do you have past experience with these units on mechanical engines? I am very familiar with the older Flowscan stuff, but would like to learn and a modern alternative………….Tell me what you know “hands-on” about them..

Tony I have not utilized these. I was looking into adding a fuel flow system onto my old Volvos but ultimately decided against it due to cost. These were one of the options I remember seeing, sorry I have no other knowledge to pass on.

Maretron has what you need to do this on a mechanical engine. You would need their fuel flow monitor plus their flow sensors. You would need one Fuel Flow Monitor and two flow sensors per engine.
