KingTech K-80 message.
I got my kingtech K-80 back from Barry and put it on my test stand to run it.
When I throttled up to full I got a message saying "pump has reached its limit".
I can't rember ever seeing this.
Is this normal or is there something wrong?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
JR

Which pump version, Flightworks or Hausel?
What is the Pump Limit setting in the ''Run'' menu?

The pump limit was at something like 232.
I also noticed at full throttle it runs over the stipulated 145.000 rpm.
Just got mail from Chunag who told me to reduce the max rpm to 144000 and add between 2-12 to the max pump limit.

RE: KingTech K-80 message.
Pump limit will vary depending on the pump brand. Limit should be around 220-240 for Hausel brand pump. Do you have excessively long fuel lines on the test stand? Should not be getting a limit error with a 232 limit value on the test stand unless you have a restriction. If this is the flightworks pump, limit value is far too low.

Let me take a look at the brand so I know for sure.
