Thanks for the response, Tommy....I understand that
you moved the return line to the wing due to concern about fuel
temperatures. Did you ever run your engine with just the Mallory fuel
filter arrangement to test it out? Thanks again. Paul

Hi Paul,
Originally, I
had a Mallory high flow fuel filter with two in-ports and two out-ports rigged
in this fashion, (Also Ed has a fuel drain tapped into his which I did
also.) I moved the overflow line to the left wing tank because of the
possibility that the fuel would not cool down enough with all the heat under
the cowl..maybe even boil--- ??
FWIW

Hi, fellow rotary enthusisasts. I finally got
my fuel tanks and sump tank installed in my SQ2000. Today I was
surfing the net, and came upon an interesting firewall fuel filter that has
provisions for routing the unused fuel from the fuel rail/regulator directly
back into the fuel filter, and right back to the engine. Their advertisement
claims "Lite-weight aluminum construction, provision for 3 bypass holders,
eliminates return lines to tank, saves 5 pounds, simplifies plumbing and has
an easy to service washable screen filter" Here is their web site for those
interested or curious. www.esslingeracing.com/new%20midget/fuel%20injection.htm
I would be interested in hearing other opinions of this product. I sent an
e-mail to them today inquiring more about it, but as of yet have not
received a reply. Thanks in advance for your replies and
opinions. Paul Conner
