The other week I had some problems with low fuel pressure on my 1972 914 1.7L. I have now diagnosed these by pulling the tank out -- one of the hoses under it was kinked.
However, while inspecting the fuel tank I discovered that there is no "sock" inside the tank. How worried should I be? Should I use this opportunity that the tank is out to add a sock? Or is it not a big deal to run the car only with a fuel filter, without the sock? Thanks, Andrei. |
