Have just done the whole soft fuel system soup to nuts and I am buttoning up the engine compartment. I went to remount the MPS and the service port on the fuel rail is hitting the MPS body dead center.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i723.photobucket.com-14731-1494188982.1.jpg) The fuel elbows to the injectors are new and not as pliable as the originals, though a fair bit shorter so any interference should have been less than with the originals. Any one else run into this? Tilting the rail forward or back does not seem to help much as this port hits right in the widest portion of the MPS. Now I know why them MPS only had the top bolt properly installed and sheet metal screws in the bottom two holes. |
