Title: PAS Pipe
Post by: Rasbo on March 27, 2008, 09:49:56

doing my first conversion at the moment, and I need to know if the pipe from the PAS resevoir to the box is pressurised or not.  I'm guessing its not but just want to check.

Thanks

Andy

no but it does obviously have to go through a pump.

It's fastened to res with a jubilee clip if that helps answers question, so I do not think that return is at any higher pressure the pump under no load (when there is full flow back to reservoir),

Yes the only back pressure is caused by the gauze filter in the reservoir, that pipe can be held securley with jubilee clips, but use new hose as it hardens.
