Default fuel flow on the cheap

Does anyone here have any experience with marine fuel flow instruments

I have flown with the Navman unit for a few years now. I think that
I paid about $150 for it. I found it on Ebay at BoatersWorld.

There is a little impeller which spins as the fuel flows through it,
the instructions tell you to install a fuel filter before the
transducer, which I did. It works fine.

If the was enough crap in the fuel to block the transducer, it would
also foul the carb. No bypass needed.

I like it.
