Electronic Fuel Injection and Ignition
for Aircraft Engines
Greg Dillon's EFII Installation
Greg Dillon's RV-9A is getting close to completion
A few more parts to bolt on and it will be time to fire the engine.
Instrument Panel
Throttle Body.
Here you can see a typical updraft throttle body installation on Greg's O-320.
The throttle position sensor (TPS) is located on the left side (as pictured) of the throttle body.
The intake air temperature sensor is higher and to the right of the TPS in the pic.
Coil Mounting.
Greg has opted for firewall mounting of the coils. This O-320-H2AD only has one mag
drive entry on the accessory case leaving inadequate room for accessory case mounting
of the coils as we would do on most installations.
Crank Trigger.
In the pic below, you can see the billet crank trigger sitting under the flywheel.
Bus Manager.
Greg has mounted a Bus Manager on the rib forward of the panel to provide a triple
redundant Essential Bus to power the critical electronics.
We should hear some noise out of this nice installation very soon!
Greg has had his first engine start and a couple of short runs.
The engine started instantly, as they always seem to!
Now to finish a number of small airframe projects, then it will ground run time!
