I've been too lazy to run a return line. It would probably help but will also increase the temp in the fuel cell. Likely that should not be an issue and any negatives (more fumes venting) would be outweighed by the positive of keeping the pump somewhat happier. The MagnaFuel pump in it...

With my 273, you can actually see the fuel bubbling in the filter. Tried insulating the line from the pump to the filter, and from the filter to the carb with no success. I'd try non-alcohol fuel, but it's not available around here. Thinking about the tri-nozzle filter and a return line to the...

Pull the pump and look for wear on the arm. If the eccentric wore the pump arm also would be wore. I have seen the pump arm pivot pin on cheap pumps wear and causing your problem. They get loose and lose diaphragm stroke . Switch out the pump with a better brand. Your problem could be...

If the fuel system is good the fuel could be perculating in the fuel pump when the motor is hot. A fuel filter with the return line filter will cure this. Today's gas vaporizes at a much lower temperature than the good old days.

Well, yeah. Stuff got a lot more expensive than it was 30 or 40 years ago. Points, condenser, cap, rotor, wires (all good stuff, not crap), vacuum advance diaphragm (original is holed), VC gasket, belts, hoses, heater core (they're not $20 anymore), air cleaner, carb rebuild kit, choke...

Fitech answered very quickly to email I sent them. Their official stance is the 2nd picture: "On the duel quad system for plumbing the fuel lines. You can bring the feed line in to the rear throttle body and tee off to the front throttle to supply it. Then for the return line you can return off...

I don't think the intake swap alone will solve it, after reading. you say the float bowls are not hot to the touch. You may be experiencing fuel percolation in the lines, instead of the carburetor itself. Pay close attention to where the fuel lines run. Are they near any heat sources? Getting...

Ill throw another vote on the return line set up. When I was younger I was around a handful of guys that had always ran return lines so I just assumed it was normal and everyone did it.

Yes, but be damn careful and I’d probably have another set of eyes there to help. Blocking that return can and probably will cause a pressure spike which will blow fuel past the needle and seats.

So I have have 4 A body’s and none of the slant cars have had a return fuel line but my 318 cars have . I have a 318 challenger too and wondering if it’s really a must for have the return line or not . I get why it’s there . But is it a must ? Because many cars in late 60s early 70s didn’t...

Why braided line instead of a hard line? Jeff

I've run 3 different intakes with 4 different carbs, or 5 plus efi, depending on how you look at it. Built 383, began with a tunnel ram and two Holley 390s. It was ok, slight hesitation at go, drivable, made great hp/torque. Just didn't like those carbs for some reason. Switched to a Torker II...

Which regulator is it? I just looked the 52502 and there is no way I can see how it works. You have an open line back to the tank.

that videos is EXACTLY what it looks like

Go to Pure-gas.org - ethanol-free gasoline in the U.S. and Canada find a station near you. Run your tank down to as close to empty as you can. fill up run it down again and fill up again. then report back. New video by Dana Nance does the video look familiar? Especially starting around minute...

Hello rbkt65: I have done several custom in tank installs so far using the following parts. Walbro GSS341G3 Pump and sock. Gates Submersible Fuel Line. A/N fittings from Summit Racing (see Picture). Wire Bulkhead from Summit Racing (see Picture). PTFE A/N style Braided Fuel Hose from Summit...

Ok , just to follow up on the fuel pump with 3/8 lines. Here's the response from Tony D'Agostino . You were dead on RustyRatrod !! AllPar was incorrect. ".....Al fuel pumps are the same as a regular 340 and the fuel lines were 5/16" only 440hps + hemis got the 3/8" fuel line with a vapor...

I have the Holley in-tank FI pump with the built in pressure regulator and no return line in prep to run the Sniper. Prior to installing the Sniper, I am planning breaking the not yet assembled engine (273/235) in with a carb. Is there a fuel pressure regulator that drops the FI pressure of the...

As others have said, modern gas sucks even when it's non ethanol but it also varies by region. I have the same issue with a pair of holley 4160 carbs, only the front one though, my rear one seems to behave. The poor running on restart after a short stop is caused by the gas percolating in the...

This is a tubbed S10, 350 w/camelbacks, as per 1st post, fuel system all new..... ****, I just put frt.end parts on the old Gr. Caravan, when I opened the box for the outer tie-rod ......greasy bent cotter pin, split boot , the works. Felt tight, may have been a misdiagnosed noise return, but I...

The ProFlo4 can only handle 10 amps of current on the fuel pump wiring. Use that wiring to trigger a relay using a separate circuit fed from the battery to feed the fuel pump. I used a Summit brand 10 micron fuel filter in the feed line which I used #6 feed and #6 return. If you’re running fuel...

Pretty sure the fuel return line and emissions cannister and stuff are removed and capped. I like the idea of trying to insulate the lines and getting the gas to recirculate again. I actually do have a pair of 360 heads on the engine. My dad always referred to them as police engine heads but I...

Gasoline isn’t the same today as it was in 1973. Put a return line on it.

What throttle cable setup is that

Not on topic, but sort of because its parts related. I was in a pep Boys store in the Edelbrock section, I bought a chromed steel fuel line because my line into my carb has too much rubber IMO, and the salesman said "this is a discontinued part so you wont be able to return it...' I was like...

Been quiet on the western front. Went dirt bike riding in Colorado for a week. Been struggling with getting the fuel line from the pump to carb the way I want it. Been getting ready for retirement (Friday is my last day), heading to the mountains for a month in a week... just not much...

Just recalled having a charcoal canister on the car years ago. That's where my cool-can sits now. Having had that canister means I have a return line fitting on my fuel tank hardware. That would make running a return line a whole lot easier. From 'inline', a pre-fit line is $65 or so. Get a...

Returning fuel to the tank will cool the fuel for two reasons: - the metal return line will dissipate heat in the fuel - the fuel tank has a large amount of steel exposed to the atmosphere which will dissipate heat. Acts like a heat sink.
