I think there will be a separate post for the August run. How is that 3way fitting work to boost tank pressure then allow flow to the carb through the same single fuel line?

sosam117, I think you know that you already posted here in last month's contest. Jacob (Admin) hasn't posted the request for August 2020 contest entries yet, should be forthcoming in the next couple days. You'll need to accent the engine in your aircraft because this is an engine contest. I've tweaked your photo a little for a possibility, not meant this is the way it should be, nor it will make you more of a winner, just to give an idea.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I have updated my photo from your idea.

Balogh
to tell you the truth I don't know how it works? It's a sealed unit. its called a 1/2A super pumper. it comes in different sizes and is factory calibrated.The engine is all new and I have not test run it yet.
I have blown through it and it does not allow flow back to the tank or pressure nipple. it is one direction only toward the carb.
Balogh I'm going to move this comment over to the Aug. Cox engine of the month thread with the engine photo.

Would be interesting to bench test it with and without the pump to see if there is a improvement.
