Engine Indication System

By -


TACHOMETER 
Standard avionics RPM is measured by an indicator in the cockpit through drive cable.
Garmin G1000 RPM is measured by the tachometer sending unit and changed to an electrical signal. The Garmin Control Display Units (CDU) display the engine speed.
ENGINE TEMPERATURE - The system that shows the temp for  engine includes  indicators and probes for CHT and Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT).
EGT system measure the temp of the exhaust gas. The measurement gives an indication of the fuel/air mixture. The system has one indicator installed in the instrument panel, which gives the two functions that show the EGT and CHT information. A probe installed in the exhaust and a probe installed in a cylinder, send the temp information to the EGT/CHT indicator.
Garmin G1000, each cylinder has EGT and CHT probes.
Garmin G1000, the GEA 71 Engine/Airframe Unit is a microprocessor-based Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) that receives and processes signals from the engine and airframe sensors.

GEA 71 Engine/Airframe Unit speaks directly with the GIA 63 Integrate Avionics Units.

Remove the Tachometer and Drive Cable.
(1) Disconnect the drive cable from the tachometer.
(2) Disconnect the electrical connector (JI014) from the tachometer.
(3) Remove the screws that attach the tachometer to the instrument panel and remove the tachometer.
(4) Remove the upper engine cowl.  .
(5) Disconnect the drive cable at the rear of the accessory case.
(6) Remove the two screws that attach the firewall shield to the firewall.
(7) Remove the drive cable through the firewall.

VACUUM SYSTEM

By -
TTP B1-L3 ATA37 Cessna 172 B2-L2   V acuum system has a filter, vacuum gage, vacuum instruments, regulator valve, vacuum manifold,  low vacuum annunciator switches, engine-driven vacuum pumps and related plumbing.   With   Garmin G1000, the source of vacuum air is in the cabin and is pulled through the  system by the engine-driven vacuum pumps. This air goes through the gyro filter at the cabin inlet source  before it goes through the vacuum gage and gyro instruments. The vacuum is controlled by the regulator  valve. The regulator valve is on the aft side of the firewall. The vacuum air is then pulled through the  vacuum manifold and past the low vacuum annunciator switches and then into the vacuum pumps. Without Garmin G1000, vacuum pressure is measured by the low vacuum annunciator   switches in the engine compartment. The vacuum gage in the instrument panel shows the vacuum  pres...
