Georges,

Very small is my guess, someone on here gave that suggestion some time ago and I can't remember the size they suggested. It's just to relieve the pressure after shut down. The loss during running is so small as not to matter.

I thought it was a great idea !

What maximum size orifice would you use in the bypass hose?
