Paul Conner ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Perry Mick=20 To: Rotary motors in aircraft=20 Sent: Saturday, February 12, 2005 8:12 AM Subject: [FlyRotary] Vapor Lock Hi, Perry....One question....Does your unburned fuel (from the fuel = rail) go back into your sump tank also? Or do you return the unused = fuel to one of your fuel tanks? If I were returning fuel to one of the = main tanks, I would think that venting the sump would be appropriate, = but since I am sending fuel undere pressure back into the sump tank, I = am concerned that once the sump tank is full, the additional fuel pumped = back into the sump tank would take the path of least resistance....out = the vent instead of back up the fuel line into the tank? Thanks for = your input. Paul Conner One other comment Paul: the fuel return from the fuel rail is not = pressurized. The pressure regulator maintains HP on the fuel rail side, = but the fuel return output back to the sump is not under high pressure. -------------------------------------------------------------------------= ----- No virus found in this incoming message.
