seemingly endless issues with my 914  Group: Members Posts: 218 Joined: 13-February 07 From: Chicagoland Member No.: 7,532 Region Association: None  |
Preparing to install the CFR 3/8" SS fuel line in my carbed '73. I will only be installing the single line for the carbs, so what is the best way to terminate the return line nipple coming off the gas tank? Do I tie both nipples together with a "Y" or "T" connector, or is it best to just block off the return nipple? Either way, what hardware works best?

I thought over the years someone may have found a 2 in 1 out fuel filter that would work well to tie both nipples into one. |

I may not be catching this properly, but, if you mean that you want to tie the return line to the feed line, I'd say don't do it. Just plug the return line off. You'll suck all the crud from your tank in to your filter and carbs. There is a screen on the feed line. Rich. |
