max distance from tank to engine for OS61FX
I recently pulled my YS 4-stroke engine out of my plane and am installing an OS61FX in it's place. The YS had a pressurized fuel system so tank placement didn't matter. Right now the tank is about 6 inches back from the carb. Will this distance be too far or will the OS have enough fuel draw. The tank centerline is level with the needle. Engine is mounted at 90degrees form straight up.

RE: max distance from tank to engine for OS61FX
Thanks. Its actually only an 8 ounce tank. Maybe I should just get a bigger tank and move it more forward, which I have the room to do.
