Phillip asked about fuel pumps running from crankcase pulsations. I am flying a Renegade with a Rotax 582 two-cycle engine. It has a pulse powered fuel pump mounted on the firewall. That engine burns 5 1/2 gallons per hour at cruise, so the output of the pump would be more than adequate for a

Netters, ON auto applications where there is multi-point fuel injection the fuel IS constantly re-circulated back to the tank, through a return line that is BELOW the fuel pickup for the fuel pump. The pump is only immersed in fuel completely at high levels and is cooled by gas flowing through

With all the problems with these things it is hard not to believe we are trying to reinvent the wheel again. Motorcyle carbs like the mikuni and zenith are intended for gravity feed but some bike designs with their gas tank shapes do not feed well that way. So some have small electric fuel

For those needing to control the pressure of fuel pumps to a low pressure carb check out the fuel pressure regulator at Auto Zone. $20 and is adjustable from 1/2 to 5 1/2 pounds approx. I have one on my KR and I believe it is the same type used by Marty Roberts. My hangar neighbor has a
