Weber question
I finally got around to installing the Weber, but I
don't have any paperwork on it - the original
setup (Carter) has a fuel supply line coming from the fuel
pump to a filter. The filter has two lines coming out
of it, I assume one is a return to the gas tank.
The fuel line that came on the Weber is just a single
line from the fuel pump, what should I do with the
return line? Reuse the 2-outlet filter?

Re: Weber question
The return line is needed to prevent vapor lock on hot days. It also
gives the fuel pump a bit of relief.
Just remember to use the center outlet for the carb and have the return
line at the top so gas doesn't syphon back to the tank when the engine
is off.
You now need to put the computer to sleep or it will just stay in limp
home mode.

Hey, one more question - The Weber came with an adjustable
fuel pressure regulator, should I use it or just let the return line
handle the pressure? I'm thinking I should still use it, I hear the
Weber doesn't like higher pressure (although a stock pump
is probably not very high)
