do they normally pump/pulsate hard when fuel is going thru them. I had a jersey modeler before and it ran smooth, but this pump seems like she's kickin hard!! LOL
That's perfectly normal as it's a peristaltic pump. Most other pumps are gear pumps and they operate completely differently. Peristaltic pumps are superior since they are anti-siphon and your fuel never leaves the fuel tubing.
I have the SL2000 and the only issue I had was using too big of a battery. I ran a 14.8v lipo and it spun so fast that in a few times it messed the rollers up.
instructions...Hi all. I just scored a Slimline 2000 from a swap and I am not sure of the "plumbing"/tube routing. I looked on their website and there were no diagrams or directions only a PDF sheet. I also called them and left a message and no response. Can any Slimline 2000 users give me a hand? Thanks. SHawn
I have had several electric pumps over the years pop off the fill line if they pumped too fast, yes it is a bit slow but in my opinion a very safe speed.
I got a buddy that used a 4s lipo, and it sped it up quite a bit.
