I would like some advice as to the best accelerator cable mount and location for a 74 type 4 i am working on. i've only owned fi so any help will help. Also is there a certain cable shroud part that holds the cable shroud to the mounting bar allowing little to no resistance for the cable to move freely. Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)

Yes, you can plug the return fuel line. But, it's probably better to regulate the pressure to the carbs and bleed off fuel to the tank via the return line.
Would also put the fuel pump outside the engine compartment and install an automatic switch that turns off the fuel pump in case of an accident. Otherwise, the fuel pump can keep adding fuel to a fire. Best wishes for your project! |

I would love to see how the return line is routed in use with the fpr. thanks |
