Sutty2006 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Before I go throwing fuel pipes all over the place, has anyone got a picture of the route the main fuel pipe from the lift pump to the carb ? On a Weber DGV? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 I think this has something to do with it…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam.in.head Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 cant comment on a webber but the std varijet. pipe joins to outlet of pump with rubber joiner then turns to metal up behind the alternator and then round the back of distributor cap and across front of head .held by a clip to the front camshaft cover. then joins solid to the carb union. yours has a rubber joiner by the looks of it.

®evo03 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Was looking at this recently, running a solex, same as above, but isnt solid piped, was gonna cut nipple of carb, drill and tap it, using a union nut, flarred pipe, then down to the mechanic fuel pump, same could be done here. Its piped flexi braided at the minute, and a inline fuel filter was looking dodge, turns out it was just aluminium oxidation of the thermostat housing, on outside of fuel filter. Thought it was hot, melt marks Was gonna pipe it solid which would mean rethinking inline filter. Think i will just replace filter only because its looking like it needs a new one, and inspect braided lines. Was wondering if it could be pipework could be reversed and filter moved away from above manifold, and filter placed beside MFP? So it would be MFP, short flexi, filter, then long flexi to carb, Opposed to long flexi from MFP, to filter, short flexi to carb Is there a filter housed in other carbs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 I’m going to run an in-line filter in the chassis. Going to go from pump to chassis neck using rubber pipe, then filter, then metal pipe all the way to the back, then rubber pipe into the tank.
