Bill if I remember correctly you changed your fuel sending unit out in your fuel tank to 1/2 sending unit correct?
I'm only trying to help and yes I'm running a walbro 392 but I'm running a 8an fitting with 1/2 line for my feed
Aaron; I know you're only trying to help and I do appreciate it.
We are not using the stock tank. We have an 8 gallon fuel cell, instead.
The Walbro 392 pump has a smaller-than 3/8" discharge port .
I didn't measure it, but it looks smaller to me, than the 3/8" fitting I screwed into it.
The pump has to push all the fuel through that hole. If there's going to be a restriction in the fuel delivery process, I believe it's going to be right there. I don't see how adding a half-inch line , after the fuel has already been squeezed throiugh that small hole is going to change anything; the damage to the delivery volume is already done. Like I said, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link and in this case, the weakest link is the pump-discharge port, itself.
Tell me what's wrong with that theory. If I am wrong, I want to know why.
I am not arguing; I want to understand this and I want YOU to understand my thinking on this; it's important. Fuel starvation will kill these motors quicker than anything.
Can't let that happen, but I don't think that adding a half-inch line to a stream that's already been forced through a hole smaller than 3/8" is going to flowany more fuel; I believe whatever restriction exists, is at the pump outlet, itself.
What do you think?
