the electric pump wasn't left running, and there is no old pump since it was an FI before and i replaced the stock high pressure FI pump with the aftermarket 3-4 psi pump. it was parked on an inline for quite a while so maybe that was to blame. if i put a regulator inline would that help even if the car was parked? thanks for the info. cheers andrew At Thursday, 4 October 2001, you wrote: >On 3 Oct 2001, at 22:45, Andrew Payne wrote: > >> screw gas in the cylinders i just emptied out a gallon and a half of >> gas/oil from my crankcase. trust me, the smell test works it was >> definitely gas and lots of it. so any guesses? how does that much gas >> get in the engine? i have a 70' with dual webers, and a electric fuel >> pump. > >Stuck carb floats??? > >Any chance the elect pump is running when the engine is off, like >overnight?
