When setting fuel pressure, is there a recommended elevation to place the gage. Obviously, the reading changes as the gage is raised or lowered??
Any Guru's willing to comment on this??? |

Got bubbles????
I bought one of those el cheapo Harbor Freight gages and realized that there is no way to purge air from it. So I looked and sure enough, real pressure gages (as used by mechanics and tv stars playing mechanics) have a bleeder. Without an air purge bleeder, you might have an incompressible fluid compressing a compressible fluid and depending on how you move it, you might have different readings. |
