watch ur fuel lines when u hook em up...i hear alot of people get them reversed =)

[vboyq]

u mean as far as coming into fuel filter and into rails then back out to tank?

[180crafter]

No he means the ones, that go into the FPR and the Hard line. I crossed mine and wondered "What the F*&%!!!". Switched them, after talking to my homeis on the board, and whalla! puppy started right up.

[vboyq]

wow.. ok gotta be careful with that huh? anyways anyone have a pretty good pic of this area of interest so i know wat it should look like before i start?

I was stumped for two months with the fuel line fiasco.

[Luke]

This is a pic that I saved a while ago when I was doing SR research. I don't remember who/where it came from.

[silva180sx1515]

i thought the line that went to the fpr was the feed line. i though you took the one that went through the fuel filter went to the fpr.

[Luke]

Correct me if the pic is wrong, the FSM I have downloaded is on another computer so I can't check that now.

With my limited knowledge, logically, it would make more sense for fuel to pressurize into the rail, then the FPR regulates the fuel returning to the tank. Instead of the fuel having to pass through the FPR while the injectors are sucking it out. hope that's the correct way to think about it ;-)

[vboyq]

so anyone know for sure... don't wanna hook up wrong!

[silva180sx1515]

i was wrong the attachment that luke put up there is right sorry about that guys.

[vboyq]

[Luke]

Good, I'm doing my swap next week and I was getting a little uncertain. :crazy

[vboyq]

i was gonna start in a week or two too, good luck to ya keep us posted.i'll try and take pics as i go along documnet the whole thing

[Luke]

Thanks, GL to too, I planned to try and take pics also. I'll have a dig. camera there, but I know once i get into it, i won't want to stop to snap pics.

the line with the fuel filter is the feed from the pump, which goes to the barb in the middle betwen the intake runners. the return is just a normal hose that goes to the fpr

[nismostate]

Awesome info. Now I know how to hook that up! Sorry for thread jacking but did anyone get their AC to work on 91-93 s13? I took the compressor off and tried to hook it up but one doesn't seem to fit. using stock ac lines. They should bolt on fine but it seems like nub seems to be too big.

You can always call up XAT Racing in Tampa and Secret Services in St. Pete they may be able to help, then again I dunno lol
