twin jets and leaking meth?

Hi Guys,

ok so with 1 jet the water surface tension holds the meth in the tube (tube from the FCM to the jet)

but with 2 jets is it possible for the meth to leak or drain out of the tube between the jets?

is this something to worry about?

Cheers
D.

Are you seeing it outside the tubing or are you saying some is evacuating the tubing into the piping more now than with one jet?

not outside the tubing...

I dont know if its leaking inside the IC piping, but my guess is it is...

but only a small amount, just whatever exists between the 2 jets... since one is raised above the other...

If the hose can be lower than the jets, gravity shoud help to keep the liquid inside hose.

yeah thats what I am thinking, I will probably have to redo the second jet line to run it lower than the jet itself... minimise the drain...

Are you seeing any air bubbles in between the jet and the fcm? You might try taking the jets out of the IC pipe and see if they drip.
