NHRA fuel check
What are you Stock and Super Stock racers using for the required fuel check? New to Stock racing.
Thanks |

This looks like it just pulls a sample from the tank. Thanks, Bill |

Re: NHRA fuel check
That one mounts on the regulator. Push in and the fuel comes out of the tube. Release and it stops. Looks like a nice way to do the job. As far as I know you have to take the sample from under the hood.

Re: NHRA fuel check
"Pumps/Valves: Cars equipped with carburetor(s) or nonelectronic
fuel (EFI) systems but with mechanical non-OEM fuel pumps must have a quick-action fuel-shutoff valve within easy reach of driver and located in the main fuel line between the fuel tank and the carburetor and/or injectors. Fuel recirculation systems not part of normal fuel/pump system prohibited. All cars in Stock, Super Stock, Competition, and Pro Stock must be equipped with a positive-lock drain valve located between the fuel tank and the carburetor(s) or fuel injector to facilitate removal of fuel samples for fuel-check purposes."
