Guest Anonymous Posted July 3, 2001 Share Posted July 3, 2001 We're approaching/hitting 100 deg lately. The car is runnning okay, but when I stop, I hear the gas percolating from the back. I can't tell directly where it's coming from, but it's not from the tank itself. I am pretty sure that the percolation is causing the hesitation/missing/etc that I have been experiencing. I am pulling gas from the bottom of the tank with a Holley Blue fuel pump. There is stainless braided that feeds from the tank to the pump, and then braided/aluminum from there. Ideas?

Kevin Shasteen Posted July 3, 2001 Share Posted July 3, 2001 Need more details! If its percalating from the rear-that's probably not from the ambient temp's but possibly from a defective pump or maybe a hole in the line causing you to lose pressure (who knows). Usually a fuel line will atomize because its fuel is heated from the temp of the engine combined w/the ambient temps...but you mentioned its coming from the rear?? If you're using a holley bule pump-that should create plenty of pressure to the the engine-check for fuel blockages or fuel leaks or a defective fuel pump. Confirm what the actual problem is-then go from there; any other suggestions from us or anyone is merely a shot in the dark w/out actually knowing what the problem is.

DavyZ Posted July 3, 2001 Share Posted July 3, 2001 Are you sure it's not the return line? Do some investigating. Also, do you have a vented cap on there? Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
