Rockin!

Post by katsi »

Well, you all were right -again! I replaced the fuel filter and added some larger fuel lines and WOW what a difference. My lurching at higher RPM went away and I could actually cruse on the freeway. Also, the rolling idle went away with the larger fuel lines and filter. The lines on there had a tunnel of about were about 1/8 inch wide (looked like the PO used clear sergical tubing - extreemly streched arround the fittings - FACT, when I tried to put the smallest plastic nipple for the glass filter in - the line split). Replaced them with some 5/8's lines and ran the glass filter and like I said, man; what a difference! :mrgreen:

One line actually ran into a larger line and the two were clamped together. So, the original 1/8 inch hole is not an exaggeration. :shock: A regular straw from Micky Craps would have been larger - the coffee one! :shock:
