Zenith-1 air balance
What is the technique for air balancing the fuel bowl on the Zenith-1? I understand it is necessary to prevent a rich condition when using an air cleaner on a Zenith.

Re: Zenith-1 air balance
If you run a tube from the bowl vent hole to the air filer (inside the air filter) you will balance the air pressure over the bowl gas with the air pressure inside the air filter.

Re: Zenith-1 air balance
Tom, Could you or someone post a sketch of how this is done? I saw an article in a magazine a while back showing a factory casting that incorporated this mod but I still couldn't figure out how the tube got back into the air filter area. I don't know how critical the location of the reenty point is. Thanks Bill G

This information was sent to me last time I asked about air balancing.
