Subject: Europa-List: Return flow restrictor?
<rparigor@suffolk.lib.ny.us>
Taking a look at how fuel is returned to tank, it uses a small restrictor to
keep pressure up.
I have a few questions about this.
What would happen if it clogged?
How would you know if it is clogged? Wait for vapor lock sound of silence?
Wait
for black smoke to appear from exhaust (perhaps fuel pressure would overcome
needlevalve), so black smoke when flying and motor that would flood at idle?
On 914? Running on 1 pump? Running on 2 pumps?
On 912S? Running on 1 pump? Running on 2 pumps?
Is there provisions to put some sort of mini filter just up flow of it? I
have
not looked first hand at oriphis, perhaps it has a cintered bronze style
filter
on it?
Thx.
