• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. 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.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. 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.

The "Ae IO360 A1A running problems " thread raised a question for me.

I have my IO320 in the AD2 plumbed to read fuel pressure at the pump. This seems to be common. Indeed the boost pump manufacturer assumes this suggesting boost pump pressure is set a few PSI above typical engine driven pump so output of boost pump can be verified....

That said, what are the pros/cons of reading pressure at flow divider rather than at fuel pump?

Thanks,

Jack
