Question the way i assumed it would work

But as it is, I'd say that cascade control simply is way too complicated.for our purpose.
So its not that the regulator is opened and closed by the crankcase pressue.
And then if the regulator is open it passes the fuel while solenoid is closed, the solenoid will "see" the fuel tank pressure and block that so no fuel is passed to the carburator.
Close or do i overlook something?
