Detostop in a Magni M 24
Detostop in a Magni M 24
Thanks Angelo to introduce my Detostop Video into this discussion.The lost of fuel is only 1 or 2 % of the fuel tank. M 24 got 80 Liter or app. 21 gallon of fuel just behind your seat. Mean, your seat ist the front wall from tank! With a strong impact you will find all the fuel quickly inside the cabine, a small shortcut will fire ist. We just discuss to fill the tank of our M 24 on Majorca Island with Detostop. The good will be the fuel can not splash all over, even in a badly damage it will run out slowly and not splash everwhere. The probem is the fuel sensor, you need the VDO Tubesensor and a new gauge. The M 24 got a good plan area on the behind top side on the fuel tank. Easy to drill a hole and get a base for the new sensor. Problem you will find with your standard used sensor: after filling the tank with Detostop the normaly used float sensor does not work because is stucked between the aluminum balls. This can not happend with the VDO Tube sensor, the floater is protected inside a tube and works perfectly in bad conditions.
All together, Detostop and new fuel gauage cost app. 800 US, but it can save your life. On all Gyro's, not only M 24. We have prooved it and it works, deffently. See you, Andy
