18.4.6 Fuel
Lines
Fuel lines must be routed away and protected from hot engine and exhaust components. Fuel
line should be of sufficient quality and appropriate to the pressures transmitted. Fuel hose end
connections must be of threaded taper seat type and should be permanently swaged to the
hoses. Push–on type hose connections are not acceptable fuel systems.
NOTE !
The whole fuel system must be able to allow a minimum fuel
flow rate of 45 liters per hour.
18.5 Procedure for Setting Carburettor
The following parameters will effect the required carburettor settings for correct and optimum
engine operation:
Engine fuel supply pressure
The fuel pressure should be 5 ± 1 psi static
Carburettor Air Filter
If an air filter other than that supplied is fitted this may
effect the mixture screw settings. There should not be
a pressure drop across the filter of more than 1” Water
Gauge at 7000 RPM (approx. 70 cfm airflow).
Ram Pipe length
This should be 14.5 inches. Variations will seriously
effect engine performance.
