Reply to "Webber Fuel Regulator"

OK. This discussion brings up two more subjects that I see.
1) on Tennessee Tims plumbing system with the Weber carbs and a return line to the tank, how do you protect the carbs from receiving more than 3-4 psi of fuel if the regulator is behind them and not in front of them?

2)considering that we are returning hot fuel to the tank with the return line, how do you protect the tank itself from being susceptable to a flash explosion? Particularly considering that liquid fuel under pressure is going to have a tendency of atomizing, i.e., mixing with the air into a combustible mixture?

This is what I was saying about using the fuel tank itself and it's contents as a heat sink.

I understand that the EFI systems use this but I don't just go and presume that all is well and good.

What happens when the tank is nearly empty and you are spraying hot fuel back into the tank? The Pantera tank is in VERY CLOSE PROXIMITY to the exhausts?
