I believe the correct number is 7 psi not 70 psi.
Brain fart. Thought we were talking about 914.

It is indeed a 70 psi sensor.
Normal pressure is 43.5 psi.

I have to admit, I’m having a hard time feeling sorry for you being “stuck in Jamaica”. Good luck and let us know if the sender fixes the problem.

Problem Solved!
It was the differential fuel pressure sensor sending unit that was bad. I contacted the manufacturer in Virginia USA and they shipped me one. It finally arrived here in Jamaica and the mechanic installed it. After more than three weeks grounded I’m now flying again. However it will be several days to get my Cuban overflight permit reservation due to the Easter holiday. Probably will be able to fly back to the US on Wednesday morning.
Thank you all so much for your assistance!
Scott

Scott, hope you're doing well and flying trouble-free. I just came across this thread and find myself having similar issue re: low fuel pressure indication. I was trying to identify the part # you replaced (differential fuel pressure sender) and realized this is not a Rotax part #. Is this particular to your installation ? Also, do you mind sharing the part # and manufacturer. Thanks in advance. Braga. PS: We only experience low fuel pressure indication while flying and below 3500 rpm. This indication does not happen on the ground.
