I'm in the process of installing AA's upper fuel line kit, but I'm not certain how the long FI fuel line goes across the engine from one side to the other.
Here's how I've placed it, is this the correct location? Also, I need some assistance with the wires.... I have a red wire coming from the Aux Air Valve, where does it connect to? I also have a white wire from the wiring loom, does it connect to the white wire at the quick connect, next to the distributor? Also, where does the black wire from the distributor connect to? Finally, do I have the distributor wired correctly and should the spark plug wires go beneath the intake manifolds? -- Rob |

To the question regarding the fuel lines.
NO. Where is your cold start injector? (might account for extra wires) The piece of fuel line you have routed atop the fan shroud normally goes to the cold start injector (its spliced into that line) I would be very careful to suspend any and all fuel lines in the rubber covered attachment points. Heat transfer into the fuel line is not good. Rich |

Heat transfer into the fuel line is not good. Rich Bad advice. 2 liter engines have a line from the fuel tap on the left fuel rail to the CSV. The line shown running across the fan shroud is an unbroken length running between the plenum and the oil filler stand. The line pictured is probably the piece intended to be used for the run between the FPR and the return pipe, as it's too long for the crossover hose. His CSV is clearly shown in the first picture, as are it's wires. There are no "rubber covered attachment points" for the fuel lines,nor for anything else. Porsche and VW left the lines loose, although some of them were encased in a plastic sleeve. BTW, that looks like a cheapo aftermarket distributor cap, what with the odd color/texture and the aluminul terminals. Best get the "real deal" and a new rotor while you're at it. The Cap'n |
