Fuel Flow test 002
Got the plane to 18 degrees take off attitude and started the fuel pump. Tried both fuel pumps one after the other - same result. These things pump 90 liters/hour which is more than this engine will ever need.

Hi Ron,
These are facet electric fuel pumps sold by Aircraft Spruce (item 40105). Very good and only use 1 amp when in use. Kind of heavy at 18 oz. These pumps will let the fuel thru in the event that they would fail. A good thing !
I have two (2), I think one is enough since the gravity does most of the work. These should only be used as primer pumps in my CH701.
Regards,
Norm
