Default Started my install today, is 36" too long from the FAV to a jet?

I found a spot to mount my fast acting valve and sensor, from that point I will be running a 36" stainless line to a 6 port manifold. Is 36" too long of a run after the FAV? Manifold to check valve jets will be about 8" of 4mm tubing.

If you are using solid wall SS line, there are no pressure induced expansion/contraction so you can have long run without dribbling. But if you use PTFE lined, SS braided hose, there will be some after-spray dribble.

Richard,

What do you recommend as a max run from fav assembly to a distribution manifold using PTFE line.

I think ~3 ft is acceptable. It is slightly stiffer than the nylon lines.
