My Stuart Warner sender failed after 10 hours. I contacted CIES and purchased a sensor made for the RV 12 tank. Now I need to figure out how to hook it up
Stay tuned

So much for E-LSA, vs 10 hours in and it's modified to E-AB, for the next potential owner, if it becomes a potential problem.
Either I am completely misunderstanding your post, or you may have misunderstood how that works. The only modifications you can?t make to an E-LSA after its airworthiness certificate is issued are those that would take it out of LSA compliance. Changing the fuel sensor is certainly not an issue, as long as the result is safe and accurate.
And there simply is no path to get from E-LSA (or S-LSA) to E-AB.

Do you put OEM oil filters on your Rotax? OEM spec motor oil too?
I'd say since Van's probably built the gas tank, put their electric sender that they spec'd in their gas tank, too, if your original sender went bad.
Sorry, that's just how I'd do it, maybe my logic is flawed somehow.
