pressure fitting

[Richard Hallett]

Manufacturers have used points all the way back to the mounting flange.
Most work.  But occasionally you will get a bug.

Be particularly careful of carbon over the hole.

My suggestion is the reverse of the thinking of most.  Use the largest size
tubing and pressure tap to the tank so you can dump the pressure at idle so
you are always the same off idle and use the smallest your engine will allow
for fuel draw.  Some of the laws of capillary action assist you in a smooth
flow with the smaller sizes on the fuel draw side.
