So I’ve mounted my fuel pump, terribly, because I’m hopeless. I am not an engineer. My permanent mount genuinely involved a piece of firewood. No photos. Too much shame…

it also didn’t start. Goddamnit. I haven’t checked spark/timing etc so it may yet be something simple.

I had limited success with my Hydrolastic pump assembly - I’ve got the system holding 100psi nicely, which is about half what it needs, but it’s still on axle stands. The system worked well but the valve I have for connecting to the noozles threads on… so I pump up to a known pressure, and then lose an unknown amount of pressure while frantically unscrewing the valve (and painting my workshop with antifreeze in the process). I’m not sure how to resolve that, but it’s a small fry problem at the moment.

does undoing the T piece release pressure on the schrader valve, so you can take off the fitting without squirting everywhere? That’s how my SST pump works.

And “work” prior to me seeing it. 

And NO, I honestly have no idea how that was created.

Seen it at drag day iirc. 

They’re definitely a little bigger and more motorbike like in the fact you have a fuel tank between your knees. But they don’t feel huge or unmanageable compared to a CT. I enjoyed my time hooning @WankBankA100’s one.  I enjoyed the power band of the 2t compared to a CT just manging along at a consistent velocity was fun. 

Main post updated.
