Thread: Fuel Line Kink

  1. #1

    Default Fuel Line Kink



    As you can see above, I have a kink in one of the lines for my EFI conversion. Not sure if its the return, proably "can" be, but i'm wondering if it can be fixed, or if it'll cause a problem.

    the feed and return lines should be diffrent sizes (at least on the connecors), The do sell repair kits fot the nylon lines but i dont know how much faith i would have in them.

    Where exactly is that peice in relationship to the rest of the car? tank, engine?

    You can know see why i ran hardline up to the front, then used fuel injection hose (rubber) to connect it I HATE that nylon line its a major PITA.

    Good luck man.

    I had s similar problem on my 87 EXP. Fuel feed line was smashed under the car to about 1/4 of its original size. I had a flat spot in the acceleration curve from about 2500-4000 rpm's until the return line was **** off by the FPR. Fixing it made a superb difference in the way it drove. Since what I fixed was metal line under the car, I simply used a length of braided A&N line with about 6 small hose clamps. Worked fine for over four years when I needed to sell the two seater due to family constraints. Hence why I replaced it with the 85 GT. Four seats.
