It'll be another couple months to go, but I imagine Dad and I will do
some
experimenting with fuel consumption in the GB42, with both engines
throttled
back & one enging at a time shut down (probably alternating every couple
hours). Any ideas of where to look for appropriate fuel flow meters for
these?


I think this is the unit that I saw in Tonga:

Hey, thanks! This looks like more than I had imagined. Should be a good
addition.

You are welcome. I was very impressed by it. I wish they made one
that worked with my little diesels.

I had the same thought. This'll work great on Dad's GB...but my little
4-108 is far too tiny for this thing...but I burn very little fuel really,
so am not as concerned about consumption.
