Default RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Bladejunkie,

I have read about the uniflow system. The benefits of it are not entirely clear to me and the article to which you refer did little to make those benefits any more clear. However, many people swear by the benefits of the uniflow system.

Are you certain there is supposed to be a check valve in the pressure line?? The fuel pouring out of the carburetor may result from too much pressure in the tank. The fuel regulators, Cline and Iron Bay, depend upon high pressure in the tank. Those regulators, however, control, i.e. regulate, the flow of fuel to the carburetor. With the uniflow system there is no regulator between the highly-pressurized tank and the carburetor.

Perhaps removal of the check valve would help.

Let us know what happens.
