I'm in the stage of installing all the engine related equipment, and since this is my first Turbine install, I want to do it right, I read and read the instructions and also have spent some time with Hayes Hutchins, who is quite the expert in this.

Will have a few pictures later today..

I have just about finished installing all components that belong to the gas generator, these are a board which will be bolted to the inner firewall.

You will see the fuel pump, the fuel valve, the propane valve, the internal propane tank, and the ECU.

Still left to do is the ECU battery.

Thank you,
I know we live in an air of instant gratification with all the Arf's on the market. But I am loving this very much...

Actually, its not all that complicated. But it is deffinately not what we are use to. But then again who wants to look at a parade when you can be in it or better yet make the parade.

Exactly - and you know when it is your first IT IS!!
Threads like Roger's is why the Flying Giants is such a great place.
My first canister install had me so frustrated (by the LACK of "how to" info) it drove me to find Flying Giants.
Man what saviors all those friendly and helpful guys round here was then - and still are! No more need to learn how NOT to do things when you can solicit so much hands on - "I built that this way" camaraderie.

Yup . I'm sure all it boils down to is some extra plumbing and an ECU.
