Fuel Problem
 
Ok here is the problems.

First I swiched from a mikuni carb and intake to a nikki. Never really had it running right.

Second I got kicked out of my house and I had to leave the car for 3 weeks came back and car whould start. Looked like someone stole the gas from my tank.

3 i drained and droped the tank cleaned and resealed and recoated the outside all new rubber hoses.

Now I get uneven fuel flow double checked for leaks and double checked that i had the hoses hooked up right. Does the same with different stock pumps.

Aslo it seams like the return lune is sending air into the tank and I can here bubbles in the tank when everthing is hooked right.




Ok I think I either have a tank problem or a fuel line problem but what can I do to fix it? The better question do I even care anymore to try to fix it? If I do I might install a 3gal fuel cell mounted up front in a cage. But most likey I ll just sell the car trade it or part it out.

Did you install the restrictor in the return line from the carb?
