hey guys i have a 420a 98 eclipse,
i dont know much about it bought it with a blown motor and i thought id swap out the motors and use it as a d.d while i build my gst,
anyways its running good but im blowing gas out of the breather hose like crazy and i believe another one of my breather hoses are leakin bad to ,
the 1st hose didnt connect to anything i belive it is a curved hose and was sitting on top of the tank,
the secong one thats leaking runs off the tank, its a runner hose that connects to a metal line, i believe its just shooting right through the clamp, bc its leaking like crazy, but i believe there shouldn be gas in this line anyways really.
help me please :pray:
 
Check how you have the hoses connected and make sure its correct. It seems strange that you are building that much pressure and leaking that severely unless there is a major misconnection of some sort.
 
here's the thing though i never messed with the fuel tank or hoses coming off of it, just switched the engines out. . is there something in the engine bay that would make my fuel pressure that high? i didnt think there was butg could be wrong

the hose doesnt look like it has ever had a fitting on it, i found it laying on top of the tank,

the 2nd hose thats leaking bad, it connect a metal line, i believe it is a return line, or another breather mayb

Anyone?
