Acetylene gas should never be used at a pressure above?
15 psig. At pressures above that, acetylene can explode.
Where do you find the fuel rail on a 1999 mercury mystique?
it is above the altenater next to the fuel pressure regulator. it is above the altenater next to the fuel pressure regulator.
Does a gas pizza oven require a gas regulator?
No, you do not "need" a regulator. The oven will work without it. However, the regulator controls the gas pressure. I bought two pizza ovens recently. One had a regulator and got up to the 650 degrees I set it to. The other did not have a regulator and would not rise above 500 degrees.
Why is ethene and air not used for welding?
If your question is "Why is Acetylene and Oxygen used for welding/cutting NOT Oxygen and air"? This is why. Acetylene and air mixed in correct proportions produces a flame temperature of 4500F to 4800F degrees. Acetylene mixed with Oxygen in the correct proportions produces a flame well above 5500F degrees. This extra heat melts the metal faster and increases the speed you can cut or weld. Other gasses instead of Acetylene are used but do not produce as high a temperature. Oxygen is almost always used with these other gasses.

Which of the fuels used in the oxy-fuel process becomes unstable if stored or used above 15 per square inch?
Oxy-fuel cutting uses acetylene and oxygen to preheat metal to red hot and then uses pure oxygen to burn away the preheated metal. Acetylene, which is used in the oxy-fuel process becomes extremely dangerous if it is used at pressures above 15 pounds per square inch.
Where is the external regulator for the alternator on a 77 dodge power wagon?
YOU MEAN THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR? The voltage regulator is basically a gatekeeper that will shut off the flow of juice to your battery if the voltage goes above a certain level, usually 14.5 volts. This keeps your battery from getting overcharged and cooked. They call it an external voltage regulator nowdays because newer alternators have them built into the alternator unit itself
Where is the mint marked on a 1978 silver dollar?
The mintmark on a Eisenhower dollar (if it has one) is just above the date.
When welding with a 3 tip what should the oxygen and acetylene be set at?
If you set your tanks to about 5 psi and 5psi, you should not have to change the pressure, instead simply adjust the knobs on the torch to give more of each gas. If this still is a problem, try 7-9 psi for each. NEVER NEVER NEVER go above 12 for acetylene, it is unstable at 15, best to not get close...
Where is the fuel pressure regulator located on a 2002 Monte Carlo?
Fuel pressure regulator is on the top of the motor above the end of the valve cover on the driver side of car.It is round about 1 1/2'' tall and has a vaccum line coming out the top.
