HOLY SH**** Fuel going everywhere!! Need help
Ok well first off its good to be back. I havent been around now for quite some time because i havent had my car now for 6 months.
Anyway i have been working on a whole slew of stuff and just this past sunday finished everything i was doing.
I worked on my fuel system, intake system, and vac system. IE the most basic, fuel filter, replaced some lines cleaned a lot, got injectors cleaned etc etc etc. Basically i took apart the whole fuel system as well as other ****.
But now i have a major ******* problem that ive never seen before.
I went to start up my car for the first time in 6 months and after performing all these repairs. So when i go to start the car it would turn over and want to start but nothing.
Then when i stoped i hear this pouring noise comming from my engine bay and all i see is fuel EVERYWHERE. And it was comming from this black canister which i thought was the charcole canister on the left side of the engine bay just in front of the cold start system. It was pouring out of a black tube comming from the bottom. Guys this is ******* wierd ive never seen this before what could cause this??? Check my sig i do have many mods including the Walboro fuel pump which i did hear while this was happening
PLEASE HELP!!

Yeah i got it. I swaped the charcoal line with the fuel return line so instead of the fuel going back to the fuel pump it was going through the charcoal canister LOL. Dumb and you know i that damn vaccum diagram isint accurate cuz it shows it the way i had it when in fact its opposite.
Sorry i panicked
