I am having this issue where the fuel is being pumped into my drivers side tank, instead of being sucked into the passenger side? I had to remove my fuel tank 5 months ago, because my fuel got bad. So I decided it was time to install my a/n fuel lines. -8 feed and -6 return, The car runs great, and no leaks at all. However for some reason I can put 5 gallons in the tank when it is empty, and for some reason the fuel is being pumped into the drivers side?
I cannot register this car in vegas, so unfortunatly it sits for the time being. After I fill it up with gas and start the car 2-3 times later to get the engine up to temp, and when I drive it in the neighborhood. The car will not want to start, like it is out of fuel. I pulled the pump and then the drivers side pickup, and all the gas ends up in the drivers side tank, while the fuel pump side is empty? And I made sure that the y connection is not bottoming out in the fuel tank.
Anyone might have an idea as to what or why this is happening? I checked the lines and they are airtight. I have read that the return fuel line pulls fuel from the driver side by a venturi effect with the fuel coming back from the rail into the tank.
Anyhow if somebody has an answer or has dealt with this I would like some info. I have searched, and cannot find a similar problem??
