I couldn't find that much info on here.... Pelican lists a damper in the FI system.
http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/Parts/Fuel...system1_big.htm Which years and which systems include this? Why leave it out? I'm building a MS system, do i need a damper in the system? Thanks |

There was a discussion about the fuel damper on the T3 email list (400+ members worldwide) and nobody noticed a single difference with/without it. No power loss/gain, no mileage loss/gain, and nobody mentioned anything about noise differences. I had one on my late model automatic T3 and took it off. Saw/heard/felt no differences whatsoever. It's a real stumper because not all vehicles got them. ??? Take it off. If you suddenly feel/hear a difference then put it back on. You won't damage anything. |
