Got it! Thanks for all the help! I even got input form Victor in Serbia

Just had the sensor pigtail wired in wrong. Hopefully one of the guys who bought the display and is more ambitious than I will do a nice write up with pictures.

Did you use OEM GM quick disconnect fuel connectors or just hose clamps?

I had mixed 3 parts of E-75 winter blend out of the pump with 2 parts VP Racing Ethanol (~98%) and the display is reading 83%, right where it should be! Thanks again!

Cool, glad it was something easy. Viktor is awesome. I'm using the GM quick connectors on mine, I'm sure hose clamps are fine. Did you put yours on the return line?

Yep, return line. Not planning on running any flex fuel interpolation until it gets more refined and perfected. Then maybe I'll look into plumbing it into the supply line. . .

If anyone is seriously interested (ie, you want one for sure) in getting more of these, PM me - I'll get a list going and see if there's enough interest. Price would probably be about the same but it depends on the dollar exchange rate and how many people get one

Merkzu are you selling the converters to convert the gm flex fuel sensor to a 0-5v output?

I can still get them but the shipping is expensive without a group buy. The converter is about $140 and the shipping would be at least $100. If you still want one you can pm me and I'll give you the details

They are two separate items but they can work together (the 0-5v converter has connections on it for an lcd display)

You can contact Viktor at CES and ask if they can make it as a single unit. I am sure they can - but it will probably cost you He has alway been very friendly and easy to work with. . .

I have mine for sale if anyone wants it. It's the one with the red display. Never did have the time to install it.
