hyper vavle

[Jer0219]

Has any one tried this product from rb innovations. It's called a hyper valve. It's installed in the fuel tubing from the pipe to the tank, curious if this could correct the half tank lean issue.

I have never seen it before. I can't believe it would be worth it for the $24.00+shipping though. I would love to hear if someone else has used/tried this.

Looks to me like its just a One Way Valve with some shrink tubing over it.

ya I can't really justify paying 24 bucks for that little sucker, I am sure I have seen something similar to this for dirt cheap. Made me wonder about the one way check valves for air pumps in fish aquariums, they even have a filter to filter the air, and a one way valve that would prevent the pressure from escaping the fuel tank and returning to the pipe, think I may give it a shot. I will post my results once the weather warms up enough for me to go play.

The benifit I can see is it would give you a constant pressure in the fuel tank I guss, without the pulses from the exhaust, BUT It'd have to be a low pressure spring in the one way valve, otherwise it wouldn't open, as the exhaust gasses would go out the tip?

Not worth it imo.

the vavle I'm thinking of trying is a one way air vavle for a fish tank air pump. Has no spring inside, valve moves with air pressure.

Team orion has a product called a constant pressure device, same thing goes between pipe and tank and is adjustable, but all this thing does is regulates the pressure which would still give you a lean condition the more the fuel runs out, I might also add that this is not a one way valve either so the pressure could still come back through to the pipe resulting in the same thing loss of pressure in the tank and not enough fuel getting to the motor at half a tank or less.

And for forty bucks they can keep it!

I almost got one till I thought of the one way air valve for the fish tank which would seem to hold the pressure rather than regulate it, all that team orion piece does is regulate pressure and give better fuel milage during a race it's more for racers and fuel economy.
