If a air throttle has 100 lbs air supply how much should the pressure be at the supply port on the pedal feeding the rear control cylinder ? should it not be the same

      My Williams system listed 60 psi as the maximum pressure into the pedal.  Dunno if that makes any difference.

Ok Bruce I found out a Williams air throttle can have up to 150 lbs supply pressure then the pedal regulates the pressure  I am told the pedal pressure will be 20,60 or 80 lbs going to the actuator on the engine his was on the money at 60 lbs all is good now  ;D

    Good, I'm glad to know that and I'm glad it's working right.
