thanks Brimmer for your input. not convinced but maybe intent; else i would not be here checking. I guess somewere deep inside i wanted the guizmo to work. But lets just say i never lose my scientific critisisim
They make it sound like its static electricity that is doing the miracle and I did...
How would you explain why a reputable retailer like Canadian Tire endorse such a product if its a scam?
I was even told that companies like nissan have their own version of those guizmos that they sell and install???

Thanks for your time. This unit remains on solid ground.
I have decided to go with the dip pipe because of the the risk for static but also because of the emultion(mousse) caused by fuel injection by the top. But i still would like to know how this is handeled in the auto/truck...
This is a parallel question regarding the "static electric discharge hazard " thread
The thread is quite interesting and has provided me some good information on the subjet. I am curently desining the fuel system, including the day tank, for a mobile diesel genset (approx 100gal/400l).

I would like to know how these concerns are avoided in the transport industry ? I.E. Most...

I like the term "Jesus Nut" lol. I never herd that one before. But I see what you meen. That same principle is applied on front wheel bearings on most rear wheel drive vehicules.
P.S What is specifier/regulator?

What do you mean by "large amount of...
This question might seem lame but I want to know if it is at all possible, for a 1 inch grade 8 bolt torqued at only 200 ft*pound (very little preload) secured with a cutter pin, could come loose ?
This is to secure diesel engine mounts on a skid base. So the joint will be exposed to engine...
the rule of thumb says you target approx 500ft/min (speed)at intake: 19500/500 = 39 sq ft of free surface area at intake if there is no loovers.
With loovers you should consider them like 50 % of free area
so you would need 2*39 sq ft.
at exhaust is the same but you can target 1000ft/min...
I think your problem has to do with the CFM.
you went from 12400 to 19500 in the same enclosure.
Your intake and/or exhaust surface area are probably to small for that much flow.
Please provide more details on sizes of those areas and if there is loovers and/or dampers.
Will be easier to...
Well i guess everyone agree on one thing
My idea for allowing joint to slide is not popular...
Greg i like your observation and it nice to know that it is difficult to obtain a montage that is stiffer than the max permitted by specs. I will have to check but i think stiffness spec is the same...
"ADMINISTRATION KILLS ENGINEERING"
I am rigidly mounting a diesel engine with a through hole/slot that is connected to a rigid solid skid base.I am using 1 inch grade 8, coarse tread, zink plated shoulder bolts,washers at both ends and nuts have a nylon lock to help prevent loosening because of...
