Fuel Flow Rate Conundrum

Thanks for the reply and picture! That definitely provides some context. I had a feeling the labor was excessive, so that’s good to know for any future maintenance needs.

I had a fuel flow transducer replaced in 2015 by the dealer when I picked up the airplane so I did not pay for it, but I recall it only took a couple of hours while we waited.

Easily a 4+ hour job if done right and counting all the time spent from beginning to end. Troubleshooting, research, parts ordering, moving aircraft, remove and replace, leak check, documentation, etc. It also seems common to have to pay for the time the mechanic spends learning our airplane.
