Hopper Tank
A hopper tank is recommended, between the main fuel tank and the engine. Kingtech
highly recommends the BVM UAT or its equivalent for the hopper tank! Always use
the filter between the fuel pump and the solenoid valve as shown in the diagram.
This is true even when using the BVM UAT! The pump may emit small particles that
can block the solenoid valve from completely closing!
Prime the pump and system
To prime the fuel pump and fuel lines (or for fuel pump test purposes), it is necessary
to open the fuel shutoff valve and run the fuel pump manually. For this purpose, use
the Test Menu selection, Prime pump. This test opens the fuel valve and acts as a
speed control for running the pump. (page 26)
Extremely Important:
Pump Test allows the fuel pump to operate without the turbine running. However, if
the fuel feed line is not removed from the turbine during this procedure; it will
become flooded with fuel. When this occurs, the next turbine start can become highly
combustible!
Before activating the pump test mode, ALWAYS remove the fuel feed line
connected to the turbine.
