(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) & Is the Tee a barbed fitting or threaded fitting? Is the rubber stiff? What is that yellow ring? Hint: Take a piece of a paper towel and wrap around each joint. Pressurize and quickly check for wet spots on paper towel. One pin head drop of gas will make a quarter sized splotch on the paper. Makes it quick and easy to locate which one is leaking. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

It shouldn't be more than about 3 1/2 PSI with carbs. |

It shouldn't be more than about 3 1/2 PSI with carbs. Useing a rotary fuel pump , supposed to be 3 to 5 psi . Lets assume for a minute that they were passed v1 And handle the problem in the air and Are able to get engine shut down and fire doesn't cause the plane to explode . Could the concord fly with a engine out and circle around back to land or plane was so far gone that no matter what level of pilot skill could overcome the Crash |
