Yes, many variations are possible.

Nobody said that the water had to be flowing but my method always ensures that there is an accurate constant 36 inches head of water pressure that does not waver or drop. Based on my research of the Zenith carburetor plant and their methods, I feel that my rig will give test data every bit as accurate as the original factory method. But as with everything, to each his own. Thanks.
