Brief Description: Install Left Side Primer Fittings / Create Templat
I removed the plugs from the lower cylinder heads on the left side (cylinders 2 and 4) and replaced them with AN4022-1 primer discharge fittings. I'm going to run 1/8" stainless steel primer lines to all 4 cylinders not only for priming purposes but also as a backup primitive fuel injection system in case my carburetor gets clogged up for some reason. The primers lines will tie back to an electric valve that will sit on top of the gascolator. To prime or actually run the engine using these lines all I'll have to do is turn on the electric fuel pump and flip the electric primer valve and viola, a poor man's backup fuel injection system that will let me limp home.
Since the stainless steel primer lines are very tough to bend I decided to initially make the lines from 1/8" copper tubing that I will then use as templates to bend the stainless steel lines. Here are lines for the left side cylinders 2 and 4.
