I do not know if I'm chasing a ghost or what ? My problem is my fuel
pressure.On the initial hit the pressure will drop to 3 psi and the
engine will stutter do to the low pressure switch and what I think is
also a lean condition . After the initial hit while going through the
gears all is well . The pressure is 7psi with the solenoid closed drops
to 5.5 psi
open . This is the second pump . I'm using 5/16 fuel lines .
I'm tapped in before the bikes fuel pump . On the pressure side of the
pump the fuel passes throuh a NOS low pressure switch and a Ford type
fuel filter then to the solenoid . The solenoids are mounted to #'s 1&3
carbs. The pump now is located on the frame between the tabs for the
center stand just below the swingarm . I'm down to a 16/20 jet combo .
By the way when I was checking the flow with the nozzles out one was not
up to par . After some work I found out the jet was a little smaller
than the rest .
Thomas Powell was gracious enough to run his bike & give me his
numbers . We match very closly except after the first hit .
I think that the fuel starvation problem is maybe the pump head is too
much or the feed side is too restrictive for the position of the pump .
I'm thinking of step 1 drill out the drain plug boss in the tank & tap
to a 1/4 npt & install a 3/8 fitting & feed the pump with a 3/8 line .
Step 2 If step 1 dosen't work get the pump up in the frame closer to the
solenoid . Step 3 Build a loop system and regulate the pressure .
Sam & the rest of you guys what do you think ? Am I being too anal
here ? Should I just adjust the pressure switch down to 3psi & run it or
keep chasing the problem ?
