Reference template

Wdl1961, it is not okeh to remove valid maintenance templates without fixing the problem they indicate. The template on this article indicating a lack of inline citations needs to remain in place until the problem is fixed. Thanks for editing coöperatively. —Scheinwerfermann ^T·_C15:53, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

feed fuel system does not require any electrical power to run, which is a safety bonus.

Other applications

Such systems are used for many internal combustion engines in other applications. In aeronautical applications, the systems are known as "FADECs" (Full Authority Digital Engine Controls). This kind of electronic control is less common in piston-engined aeroplanes than in automobiles, because of the large costs of certifying parts for aviation use, relatively small demand, and the consequent stagnation of technological innovation in this market. Also, a carburated engine with magneto ignition and a gravity feed fuel system does not require any electrical power to run, which is a safety bonus.

Sifting through the article history, it appears the irrelevant and poorly-written parts of the block of text you present here were reinserted when I reverted your unwarranted removal of valid maintenance templates. You're certainly right that I should have paid better attention to the totality of text being restored in the revert. Thanks for calling attention to the problematic text, which has now been cleaned up. —Scheinwerfermann ^T·_C17:03, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
