Default Re: Re: Fuel Tank & Pressure Line!

Hey Guys,

Something i noticed today was that while being refueled when the lid is closed it would inject a heap of fuel into the carby and flood the engine and on numerous occasions the motor ending up stalling. Any suggestions? Do i need to run a longer pressure line from the exhaust or are we simply filling the tank with too much fuel?

The problem lies with the tank lid. Replace the AFL seal on the lid. The spring tension on the AFL lid alone is enough to shut the lid. If you need to press it to close the lid properly then its a tank problem, replace the whole tank.

About shutting the lid too quickly is a joke, you dont need to worry about it.


Cheers Bill
