Hey Everybody. I have been searching for an hour with no luck. I have a 1976 914/4 that I have converted over to 44mm Empi's. Now I am setting up the fuel system, new low pressure pump, stainless lines, presure regulator, etc. what I can't figure out is what to do with the extra line I have on the fuel tank. Should I cap it? Vent it? I did run both stainless line back to the engine bay so I could t them in or what ever. I just need some guidance.
Thanks in advance. Robin |

Robin Having BTDT, the best advice I could give is this: Go back to the original fuel injection as it is a dependable and fine performing setup. Carburetion that is poorly setup (combined with disabled cooling system) will lead to quick demise of your poor engine. I have never seen a street 914 improved by removing the FI, but have seen several with the opposite result. |
