Default Re: pump above tank

Thanks Richard.
Yes you are quite right that I don't have an aquamist pump. I'm desperately trying to get a boost triggered system in place before a Bathurst Mt Panorama hillclimb event that's comng up. So I'm running (very temporarily because I don't think i'll trust it for long) a generic 100 psi 5L/min diaphragm pump to get me up and running.
I did a bench run yesterday and like you say it amazed me how long it takes for any air that has entered the system to completely work its way out and also how badly it affects nozzle performance. So based on that and your advice i'll definitely be fitting a tank empty pump cut sensor. Do you ever utilise a tee'd bleeder?
I'm using your 0.4mm 'C' nozzle on a vw 1.8T 20v turbo.
