Fuel flow

[lambro]

Not looking for a mass debate (tee hee), just wanted to put a figure up for others to ponder on.

Subject is a standard Lammy tank, normal translucent green fuel pipe, tap on normal and straight into a fuel can.
NOT through a carb or filter, cap on tank removed for flow test.

I set my timer on my phone and switched fuel on whilst also pressing the start button.
I know there will be a small magin of error between my brain and hand, and actual flow, but my readings were:

1 litre of fuel, in 7.37 minutes.


Does anyone think may be partially why it seized

Could be. Definitely not good.

deffo: in my book anything under 0.4 Ltr per mnute needs sorting!

Cheers chaps,
It was a bit of a tongue in cheel type question.
I am not one for measuring fuel flow as a rule, but when I went to drain my mates tank so I could fit a fast flow as
I normally would, I was shocked at the dribble it produced.
Hence I measured it.

Any, what with the fecked crank, piston, seals, chain, mounts, bearings, wrong head gasket etc, it wasn't that good a dealer build
