Ok so....

 

Removed the surge tank from under the car and first thing I checked was the factory return line... and... BLIGGITY BLIZZOCKED! 

 

Removed the shroud from the hard lines under the passenger side of the car and dosconnected the fuel line, sure enough, sh*te came out. Checked with a piece of filler rod and the return was blocked about 60 - 70mm up. 

 

Problem solved. Kinda glad now as I can get the tank welded and be 100% confident it wont be popping again. 

 

For anyone else experiencing odd idle or extremely rich to the point of stalling idle - check your fuel lines. Especially if your cars about 10 years old. 

 

Just to add to this, these hard lines are probably the only hardware in the fuel system I havent replaced since reviving the car. Typical. 

 

Thanks to the usual legends for the input.

Don't forget donations. 

 

If every member contributed just $10, the forum would benefit greatly. 

 

Look at the date on this post
