RE: Smoke with muffler pressure only
???
I am picturing myself putting 2 straws in a sealed container, one straw with a smaller diameter and blowing into both straws, would fluid come out the smaller one?
I am kind of thinking that the hose size is the same but the fitting is smaller? Perhaps it will act more like a restriction.
Some small amount of force will also be lost going through the 2 check valves and smoke valve.
Interesting.
