Hi Bob,
A couple of follow up questions:
You said 3/8 ID min. for the 914 . Am I correct then that I would need to
use 1/2" Versatube aft of the firewall?
Also I have run 1/4" Versatube for the fuel return to the tank. Does this
also need to be larger. ( 3/8"ID or 1/2"Versatube)
I'm easily confused on these matters and that's where I'm at right now.
thanks for you help,
craig
