    Why become a Subscribing Member?

    • In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).
    • Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

We have my Acrosport II almost ready to fly, but as usual, there are a couple of bugs to work out. The carb has a fresh yellow tag from a place in Oklahoma city, if I remember right.The engine (an O-360 A3A)runs great, but we are seeing about 18psi of fuel pressure. Both the carb and the fuel pump have about 400 hours with each other. I downloaded the Bendix PS5-C manual, and it recommended 9-14 psi. Will I have to change the fuel pump, or is there a fuel pressure regulator that I can install to bring the pressure down?
