Car Stalling / Fuel Starvation Question - Lateral-g Forums

jy211 · #1 03-23-2016, 09:39 AM

Question for you guys:

Has anyone ran into a issue like this:

I'll take a ride through my neighborhood and the car stalls/shuts off sometimes, after a mild curve or left or right hand turn. Also sometimes after a curve, I'll hit the gas to make it up to a stop sign and the car shuts off?

The car does it at any fuel level in the tank. Car has a L92 FI set up.

I've sent the tank back to Ricks and they made a adjustment, but it's still happening.

Any suggestions?

Had the same issue today. It might be vapor lock. I had to put a bag of ice on my ls6 intake. Might be the routing of your fuel lines. Make sure its not next to your headers.

I thought getting a nice fuel tank with a pump would solve that issue but I guess not.

I had a similar issue with my old Rick's EFI tank (that I had bought a few years ago). It had check balls integrated into the tank plumbing to prevent those type of starvation issues. . It would only do it when it was hot and about a 1/4 tank or less). Put in a Vaporworx style one and have had zero issues since (regardless of fuel level or outside temperature).
