Secondly, it stops the heated fuel from the engine compartment and rails from going back to the tank. Not an issue in around-town driving, but you get out on the road for 200-300 miles and you would be amazed how hot the fuel in the tank gets. The gas is very hot coming back and the fuel level in the tank is dropping, making it even worse. This then causes the pump to cavitate, and eventually you're stuck on the side of the road waiting for stuff to cool off. Ask me how I know............

Power Tour 05 saw many cars have this issue.

Jody,

Can you post a link to this fuel system thread for a goober like me ??
Sounds like a cool way to set things up. I'm also assuming your running a vaccum line from the motor back to the regulator or is there some other way to do that ??

Thanks for any input on this, I appreciate it
