 |
|
Kolbers,
I was talking with an A&P, at the airport about the size of my fuel tank, and leaving space for the in external fuel pump behind the tank, while still maximizing the size of the tank. He said that in his experience an automotive style internal fuel pumps are far more reliable and when installed in the tank, would allow for a lager tank size…
This guy has been around, and has a good reputation. I would be interested in your thoughts…you don’t have to hold back:)
Thanks,

Well I have been using the same one since 1997. Its simple to use, simple to see and check. I think it cost me $17.00 A Facett I mean, with 3-5 lbs pressure. You can be as sophisticated as you want. Neither one would hurt. I am sure that one of them is cheaper however. They are still going to call it an ultralight or a toy however. :-)Larry

I believe most in tank automotive pumps are made with fuel injection in mind. putting out high pressures. Even the old throttle bodies ran 15psi newer multiport run up around 40 psi. I don't think this what you want wit a Rotax
