Showing a single fuel-up


Aug 10 2020

Th. 8/6 we drove up Rist Canyon, Old Flowers road, and the first bit of Kelly Flats. I had issues every bit of the way with fuel lines. So, Friday am, bypassed the elec. pump. Took a drive and it ran good but, the fuel pressure was still low - only about 1psi. So, swapped out the AC pump as I suspect it is a very weak pump. Put the old Carter in and drove it today. The Carter also runs low psi - only about 1.5 - 2 psi. I may swap out with the new (never used) Carter to see if a new pump delivers higher pressure. If not, maybe the low pressure is just how my system reads or maybe my gauge reads low. Stay tuned...
