Fuel pressure gauge

Post by Cormoran »

Hi

After emptying an external tank, the pressure gauge still showed 15psi.

Should it not read 0psi ?

How long did you have the engine run on that tank? Fuel pressure should drop within a couple seconds of the tank reading 0 gallons.

Left and right lasted 40minutes plus, each.
The engine cut out very abrupt, had to be quick on the fuel tank selector.

But yea, the fuel pressure gauge stays on 15psi
