I'm running out of idea here and looking for help.
I'm loosing fuel pressure. If I let the car sit for a while, when I start the car I have 3.5psi. and after 20 minutes it's close to 0. I've cleaned the tank last week and treated with por-15 gas tank treatment. Same issue. Changed the fuel pressure regulator to a holley FPR and still the same thing. Swapped out fuel pressure gauges still same thing. BTW i checked the tank last night and it was clear of debris. Could a fuel pump do this??? I'm running a bendix fuel pump (might be at the end of it's life?). It seems like something it clogging up somewhere and now it's clogged pretty good as i couldn't get back to the office after a spirited lunch drive... I'll let it sit for an couple of hours and we will see. I cleaned the tank thinking if was full of rust. It wasn't that. I did find the fuel strainer in parts next to the 'pickup' in the bottom of the tank. Seems like it wasn't that either. Oh btw, I'm setup this way: tank / fuel hose / filter / hose / pump / hose / filter / FPR / gauge / carbs. |
