hey guys, I have just read this post and as far as i can gather you are saying that the 95+ models have a modified tank to stop this prob of fuel starvation on hard left hand turns, am I correct in saying that??
If so then I Have a 99 and have had this problem only on one occasion, swinging a left hand drift come donut lol and it just cut out, stopped, then started sweet and drove off thinking WTF !!! I had between 1/2 and 1/4 of a tank, |
It's possible that you were in that situation for a longer period of time.
The 93-94 tanks have crap baffling. This was addressed on the 95+ models. I don't know to what extent, but I know for track driving, many have said it fixes it, unless of course you're on a 1/8 tank, then you should be shot for driving in that condition anyway (pure racing excluded). I'm not aware of whether there was another redesign after that. Scrub, I assume you'll start up something else about that? I'd like to know more, especially with what I already have for my setup. |
sounds like a surge tank type of thing.

i need a surge tank, as mine will cut out when doing donuts, i have a 96 rx7, its ok if you have over half a tank, but under that its no good

well, I guess maybe I'll step up my plans....... I don't think a fuel cooler would add much, if any performance. I mean how hot does the fuel get in the tank, under the rear of the car? I could probably incorporate something if there was interest.

Anything that lowers combustion temperatures in a PLUS in my book. The stock ECU took a fuel temp reading so I assume temps can get to the point where you retard timing (or inject more??)

I understand why to use a cooler, but I didn't understand why you'd want it at the back of the car.....like he said, the closer to the engine the better. But I think with your knowlege you could probably install a fuel cooler as easily as I could :)

There's a local guy that has a similar setup I think. In tank pump feeding a swirl tank in the hatch with another pump and -10 lines up. The thing was that you couldn't even touch it it was so hot. Probably not setup the right way and definitely not good to heat the fuel like that.

This was a very old thread to re-open, but since it was already opened there was the group buy on surge tank covers for the stock tank. The piece solves the problem in a very inexpensive and easy to install manner. No need for a swirl tank, I am not even sure what that is
