That is really pretty ..............
We're going to have to make this a Friday subject.
I'd be interested to see it deliver more fuel to anything but the fuel
pressure regulator that is simply going to bypass it to the tank.
I've got an 83 Westy with the type IV Air Cooled engine.
I installed a full circle fuel rail using a 85 up dual input Waser Boxer
fuel pressure regulator.
It helped to reduce lean burn on #3 cylinder as indicated by the spark
plug burn color.
Other than that its just more plumbing.
The other thing I noticed is that he's got the injector to rail hoses
bent .......... No, No bends that tight please, it causes premature hose
failure.
If this is an auction by a list member I must say; Shame on you for
wasting our time.
