Perry Pump Regulating Smoke System
 

Can you run this pump off the exaust pressure?
or
Would it be possible to tap into the YS Regulators return line that goes back into the tank?
Does the oil tank need to be vented, would it leak? or can I use a one way check valve here?

Also any other info regarding the smoke system would be apriciated.

If you are talking about the V30 pump...no...it needs crankcase pressure (pulsed ) to operate the diaphram.

i think its the V40, here is the link http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXTU95&P=7

O.K.
That's basically the same pump, only using different materials to allow the pumping of smoke oil(s).

You have to use case pressure...that's what the red tube is for.

Mine didnt come with a red tube? oh well
In that case will the crankcase of a saito 82a be enough? if I install a T and add one side to the pump and the other to the atmoshere?

Yeah, you should be able to do it that way.
I'm thinking that maybe you could do the same with a T in the YS's regulator line too, because that is a pulsing pressure, correct?

I'm thinking the smoke oil tank should be vented just like a fuel tank? (I've never done a smoke set-up, but I have set-up several Perry pumps)
