Got a little work in this afternoon, Autumn ran some parts, I ran the new return line and installed the collector tethers. Should have some more done tomorrow night, I'll get some pictures.

Just thinking is it possible that while assembling the fitting into the hoses that a piece of something somehow got into the hose?

No, it was flowing into the tank from the return line like a fire hose.

try another regulator you got the old one from when you got the car you just might have a bad regulator--FED 387

Whew, been down and out feeling bad last couple of days. Got the tank back in to test the return line change today. We'll be hard at it this weekend!

Very nice.

I would not have guessed that the return line size difference would have been the issue here. Good job.

And I hope you'll be feeling better too.

The line change made a total of 7psi difference. Thank you, feeling much better.

Just getting ready to leave work, stayed to re-coat the tank and a few more pieces to bolt on this weekend. Autumn and I will be at it tomorrow... wish us luck with the fire up.
