Hi,
My Dragonfly project came with an Ellison EFS-2 throttle body injector that hasn't flown in 20 years. I've sent a note to Ellison to see if they still do overhauls. But I notice there are alternatives. I'm just curious if there is a consensus about this part?
The Ellison web pages strongly discourage the use of auto-gas, something I'm not thrilled about but we have to deal with realities. I suspect the diaphram is the most critical part subject to auto-gas abuse. It would also be the part most likely needing to be replaced in a an overhaul . . . along with a through cleaning . . . especially in a chemical bath perhaps with ultrasonic agitation.
Thanks,
Bob Wilson
