Fuel Filter Success!

By adding the fuel filter to the engine, the car no longer floods out. It was amazing the amount of gas that was being pushed to the carb that it didn't need. The car runs great now. Below are a few pics to illustrate the difference.


Here's the fuel line before. It goes from the pump (blue) to the Carb (green). The Yellow marks where the fuel filter should be. The filter regulates the amount of gas getting to the carb. Without it, the pump is pushing too much.


Here's the newly installed fuel line. Note the new path and fuel filter in place (yellow arrow)). Right now there is a black tube(red arrow) that goes out the back. Now that the fuel filter is in place I need to run that black tube through a hole in the fire wall (green dot) to a solid line, under the car and to the gas tank. I don't know if that line is still there or not, so that's my next job to get this car running.

Below you can see how much gas is flowing that does not go to the carb. No wonder the car was flooding out so bad.
