Justin, slow down.
Dave's fuel flow is great -- Wewon'tblink's fuel flow is a total unknown.
Wewon'tblink hasn't done the test yet.Wewon'tblink hasn't reported on ANY of the tests you guys have requested, and yet you want to keep trucking merrily along as if he has.
I don't think Dave is delusional, he has provided a good testing tool that assumes the newbie actually did the Serowbot Test correctly and now the newbie can test the complete Prime through flow of the entire system against a known benchmark (which itself is based on a full tank of gas providing X vertical pressure).
When Wewon'tblink actually DOES it that is ....
Key words are "assumes the newbie actually did the Serowbot Test correctly" --
Wewon'tblink hasn't reported on ANY of the tests you guys have requested, and yet you keep trucking merrily along as if he has.
Not reading the thread, not keeping back reading to verify what the newbie has done and not done --- these are major flaws for someone who is helping a struggling newbie.
This is like the 5th or 6th time you helper type persons' enthusiasm has gotten way way ahead of your new person's reality. Take a deep breath and let Wewon'tblink catch up with Dave.
I begin to suspect that the boy hasn't carefully read and carefully done all the very simple details of the Serowbot Test. If he has, then he can certainly type up a description of the test procedure and then tell us exactly what it did to his bike.
Also, DOES HE KNOW HE IS SUPPOSED TO LEAVE THE BIKE SET UP FOR THE SEROWBOT TEST WHILE HE DOES THE NEXT SERIES OF TEST ITEMS? DOES HE KNOW HE IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A FULL TANK OF GAS WHILE DOING THESE TESTS? That the rest of the stuff is predicated on a full prime fuel flow with the vacuum system totally blocked off?
Until he does these things and reports back, STOP --- give him time to catch up.
..... and how many times have newbies done about half of the Serowbot test steps, or done them with an almost empty tank of gas, then took it all apart and put it back to stock vac petcock plumbing and then stumbled terribly through the next set of suggestions because they simply didn't understand what they were supposed to be doing -- that's on you guys for not making them report and on you guys for not telling them EXACTLY what to do, step by step. And for way too many people talking to them at the same time, saying completely different things (chasing completely different rabbits).
