the pep cock W/dyophram like you said it act like a fule pumo but also regulates flow what concerns me is a motorcycle run off a diffrent amperage then a car so if you use a automotive fule pump you could damage your stater or could feed back and take out your elec system you could weld you up a frame on the back that you can mount a tankOriginally posted by PsychoKart
Well, I really need my fuel tank on my floor pan so I need to figure something out. I guess I could install a very small tank on top of the engine, and have a fuel pump constantly pump fuel up to the small tank, and have a over-flow line right back to the fuel tank on the floor, so it would basically circulate fuel constanty up to the small tiny tank above my carbs. How does that sound?
Oh, you said the petcock vacume line regulates fuel flow? I don't understand how the petcock works really.. Does the vacume line Open/Close the petcock valve, or does more vacume presure alow more fuel through the petcock, and less vacume pressure let less fuel through? I thought the only purpose of the petcock vacume line was to "shut off" the petcock when the engine wasn't running, otherwise the petcock valve was fully open when the engine is running?
Thanks,
