Subject: | RE: [jabiruengines] fuel pressure with full throttle |
That does sound quite low, the sensor should be between the engine fuel
pump and the carby. 0.07mb is the square root of * all.
Though if you can carry out a 5 min climb at full throttle without the
electric pump then I would be happy.
The other check to perform is a fuel flow check, this is stipulated by
the UK LAA on an aircraft build and checks that your system has excess
fuel when it's at full throttle. It is a good check to carry out though
it is a bit of a fiddle to do.
See the form at

Subject: Re: [jabiruengines] fuel pressure with full throttle
Thank's everyone...
I had another fly today (it's winter in french...), flying over 2 hours.
No problem of pressure. I just set the fuel pressure alarm at 0,07 mB.
I don't really understand why fuel pressure goes down with little T=B0,
and why when full throttle...
I'm positive, thinking I have a lot of things to learn...
Thank's for all responses...

> I have had the same problem. It sometimes drops to < .75, which is the
limit in the manual. However, I have never seen any signs of fuel
starvation as a result of it. I e-mailed Pete about it and got a
response from him asking where my fuel pressure gauge was in the line,
so I assume that the placement of the sensor has some impact.
Additionally, the opening in the engine installed pump is only 1/4 inch,
so there is a little restriction built in.
