Guys,
I'm having some issues with fuel consumption, I need over 8 oz of fuel running on a pipe. The nose of my airplanes have 6 inches available and 2.125 width. NV centerline on a K77 is about .77 inches above the mounting rails which helps when I fabricate a fuel tank as I pick up volume on the height. I've been making sheet metal tanks which can hold about 8.5 oz if I keep everything on center. I can also drain pretty much to the last drop with them, but they are a PITA to make and don't give me a lot of extra time to walk out the lines and clean them.
Any of you have experience running a clunk tank off-center from the NVA? If I could put a 9 or 10 oz in there and have some extra room it would remove the pucker-factor on the cloverleaf. I've burped there a couple times.
I'm running 10% nitro and the K77 seems happy at lower oil content around 18%.
Thanks in advance,
Chuck
