Where's my Pitot Tube?

Geneva Point · 07-18-2011, 02:09 PM

PHDIII

I sent you a private mesage to maybe get a bit more detail from you.

It's "a" in the image above.

The problem may also be cause by a loose speedometer hose connection on the drive. It's near the front, just above the ventilation plate.

I don't show an image above, only an x.

Huh, still works for me.

PHDIII's location of my pitot tube was spot on. I cleaned it out with the drill bit by hand as PHDIII suggested and the speedometer now works fine. Went for a test drive this afternoon. Also, thanks for the picture Dave R. The image was very helpful. That hole is small and hard to find.

It definitely an X. The site you linked to is serving an image that is different for hotlinks, since they appear to not want their content redistributed. You likely have a cached version from your original/direct load of the image, but everyone else sees a GIF of a red X.

I am seeing the picture (using Firefox).

Regardless- glad your speedo is up and running again Geneva

You're seeing both pictures?

VitaBene · 07-24-2011, 11:32 AM

Yes- an image of the top of the drive and a second of the top of the drive with a pair of hands showing what to do with the pitot.

That is a single image. Above that, there is supposed to be another image, supposedly with an "A" identifying some component.

I see two images..L & R ..maybe in the same frame...L & R. An artists simple rendition..which works for me...technically.. However: There is also a relatively large stand alone RED X above..but that X is NOT in a box...which is the usual case when you can't bring up a picture.

That's because the "X" is the actual image being served by the site he tried to link an image from originally.

You are not seeing an undisplayable image indicator, you are seeing a perfectly displayed image of a red X.
