The fuel pump you recommended uses hose clamps and the outlet
side is
short and can only accommodate one clamp, I'm going to see if
I can
find some with NPT or AN fittings. Incidently, That $100.00
pump looks
exactly like the one in Summit Racing Catolog for $167.00.
Didn't you get fuel flow readings when you had the 13B on the
dyno? I
need a ball park figure for when I flow my needle valve. Karibian
It is 25 gallons an hour full power and 10 gallons an hour
cruise.
I don't see how that needle valve is going to give uniform
flow in
all those tubes. I can't see inside of it. Can you make a sketch?

Karibian,
Good to see you are forging ahead with the mechanical fuel
injection. It looks like a low-pressure system with no return
flow. With six injectors you should get good fuel atomization,
even with
low pressure.
If this works, it will provide others with a template for a
simple fuel solution with cockpit mixture adjustment.
Btw, is this an RX8 engine? I thought two of the injectors on the
RX8 were right on the housings?
Regards,
Gordon.
Paul,
You asked me to remind you to dissect the one-way check valve on your
Walbro-type pump to see if it might need a secondary backup check valve.
Scott Gettings
Yes Scott. Thanks for reminding me. Unfortunately I am in LA today for a trip
to Mazdatrix so I will
be back tonight where the Walbro pump is. As I recall I did not see a one way
valve in the Walbro pump. But I will double check tonight.
