I'm not an expert but the nozzle sizes do vary along with the size of the coil.

Of course the heat will be lower. With more water moving through the coil, the more heat you need to make it hot. You'd probably need a 2.5 gph fuel nozzle.

No, usually the coil in a larger gpm rated burner is larger (more total length in the coil) and usually the fuel nozzle will also be larger.

Fuel pump for remote-feeding an engine
No problem,
just use a fuel pump to deliver the fuel,
if the tank is Not gravity-feeding the motor.
Subaru has a cute little 12vdc pump that doesn't draw much power,
but a "smart-guy" at a lawnmower shop can put a generic pulse-pump on,
connect it to the crank-case for power,
and keep ALL your charging system for that 12volt burner.
We talked a customer through putting one on a small diesel a while back..
It has worked flawlessly, but the customer was in a rush when he installed it,
and didn't use UV fuel line for the fuel lines.
At least he let me take pictures of it. Eh?

Make sure, too, that you use a regulator on the carb inlet. The Honda float can't hold back much pressure.

Same with Kohler watch the fuel pressure on the 12v pumps.

That looks like what I'd like to do, but I'd definately need to find a "smart guy" to do it... the 12 volt would be ok for this machine, its an electric start motor with its own seperate battery, need to see about the regulator though, these hondas like to flood as it is so I can see how that might be an issue.
