fuel pressure reg ??
Turbo Mini Forums

got the car running today but it keeps flooding out to the point it stops !
should you be able to blow through the fuel reg from the fuel feed to the carb outlet without restriction ?
if i turn off the pump it runs so sweet till it gets starved

nope shouldt be able to blow through it,

whip the lid off see if the diaghram is split, if not check every thing moves ok, bung it back together and readust.

Yes you should be able to blow through the FPR inlet as long as the outlet is not blocked.

That's how fuel flows through it.

It would only become blocked if the outlet ( ie carb inlet ) was blocked by the needle valve or other blockage.
And also assuming the return port at the bottom is also sealed.

speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

yep, scrub that,

on the pic below you shpu;d be able to blow from A to C, but none of the others.

Have you checked the fuel pressure?

Is the FPR turned to minimum?

Is there a restriction in the return pipe?
