I looked in the yellow book and on the drawings, and the info may have been there, but I couldn't find what fuel line size I need. It appears by looking at the Bing carb and Mikuni fuel pump that it might be 1/4" dia but that's a guess. What material and size does the group recommend for fuel line for a 447? Rotax Rick does recommend ethanol gas to keep water suspended so the material should be able to handle that I guess. Thanks, Jay Dub ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:24:01 PM PST US From: Jay Dub Subject: Kolb-List: primer bulb and pulse line In addition to the fuel line question I just posed, what primer bulb has held up well? The one I had in my CGS Hawk years ago got a crack and the fuel line was sucking in air so the engine quit in flight. I was able to squeeze the bulb to get fuel to the engine to restart and I kept squeezing until I got back to the airstrip with fuel running down my arm. Is there a quality one recommended? Also, what pulse line size/material is recommended these days for the single carb mikuni pulse pump? Thanks again, Jay ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message kolb-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kolb-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/kolb-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/kolb-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
