Andair PX500-TC Pump

[tazzrrd]

I have Andair PX500-TC Pump for 1/2 "Fuel Lines and my fuel lines are 3/8, my solution is the one I show in the photograph, there is a better one, there is a problem that the fuel line is smaller That the bomb ??





Thank you

On fuel line size, here, from the automotive world, is a Mallory fuel injection pressure regulator's installation instructions:

Note that even though the inlet to the regulator is a -8, the chart shows that up to 350 HP can be fed with a -4 fuel line from the pump. Automotive systems typically operate at around 40-45 psi, but even at the a/c norm of around 30 psi you should still get plenty of flow with -6 lines.

I have an Andair PX500-TC in my RV-10. It's very loud but seems to function properly.

With no basis for comparison, I don't really know if it's normal. I know loud is subjective. The pump appears to function properly with adequate pressure.

Any others using the PX500-TC?
