Turbo Jet it is then..
I have started
work on the engine supports and the idea will basically
be the same as the Solent frame. Shock mounts will
be fixed to the support rail to reduce vibration.
I can now start on the serious stuff as the manual has
just arrived from Bruce @ Avon
Aero.

Does anybody
out there have a spare JFS100 exhaust nozzle and Throttle
assembly that they would like to sell? Rather than make
one up I would prefer to get hold of a stock item instead.
Please contact me if
you have.

The beginnings
of my Go Kart Engine Mount Frame (Chassis Side), a coat of
red oxide primer always helps to make the job look good.

Next, I'm going
to start work on the fuel system. |

Fuel System.
From the tank between my legs, the fuel passes through
a (12V) LP fuel pump and
in to the filter assembly and once filtered the fuel
enters the engines own fuel system. The drain valve is
connected
to
a tee piece just below the LP fuel pump so when the HP
Cock
is de-energised the fuel can flow back to the tank.
