Update: The new return restrictor valve (Mikuni 15) is returning about 3.75L/hr 

Thanks for that, Skippy. So, as suspected, a good deal more than the 2L/hr figure that has been bandied around for so long.

True! but a lot less than the 7+L/hr that the standard Mikuni No 35 was returning

What about your fuel pressure? Is that now staying in the normal range?

 

Yes! Now well above Rotax minimum. I plan to return the aircraft to my home workshop after Test Flying completed - on the (extensive) to do list, will be a complete review of the fuel reticulation system. This may result in even better fuel  volume/pressure - we will see.
