Title: Fuel Pipes (reconnecting them)
Post by: Matt_K on August 12, 2008, 03:38:17 PM
I\'ve done a search and there are threads from ages ago, but the image links are broken

When I took my engine out 4 months ago I had them all neatly labelled and tucked safely out of the way so they couldn\'t get ripped off - got back to them today and err.. I guess 4 months with the weather\'s made the ink disappear :Giggle:rolleyes:

So for the 3 fuel pipes (well, feed, return and vent) from the bulkhead hardpipes to the engine, which ones connect to which under the elbow? (near the ABS)

Anyone got a picture?

there are 3 metal pipes they connect to down the back of the engine bay.  

hose at the top in the picture goes down and connects to the metal pipe on the left

hose on the right (tucked under the one on top in the pic) goes to the metal pipe in the middle.

that then leaves just one left. HTH

Thread revival,

Just trying to figure out which pipes do what, in the triangle formation they are in is it the one closest the bulk head that is the return line ??

from memory the closest to the bulkhead is the return, the furthest is the feed. they connect to some hard pipes that route to the fuel rails - if you pull the UIM off you can trace them back :)
 
sorry, that\'s not actually that helpful!
