Seafoam killed my car and I broke my fuel line.

So let me get this straight.

This:

...is the fuel that came from the dirty side of the filter after you removed the line, correct?

That's 100% normal. The last few dirty fuel filters I removed provided similar results....it means the filter is in place and is doing it's job. If the fuel looked like this on the clean side of the filter, then you have problems.

It's not the fault of SeaFoam....you have a dirty fuel filter.

I don't know what your talking about with this california thing, I'm not located in california and it has nothing to do with this topic.

Currently my main concern and focus is replacing my fuel line, upgrading my pump, choosing an inline filter, correcting the incorrectly mounted fuel rail and then finally cleaning or replacing my injectors. Then going back to gettng my car to start. There is nothing hard or comical inunderstanding this.

Im thinking thats where his house is located and doesn't want it blown up.

what is wrong with how your fuel rail is mounted?

I'm in the market for a new filter to take its place along with new fuel line.

I mean you can spend a fortune and get some fancy billet fuel filter with a braided hose, or you can do something similar to what you've posted above and use a Wix 33482. It's a 3/8" Universal Fuel Injection filter.

I'm gonna assume the injectors are fine since it looks like everything clogged up at the filter.

Why would you assume they are fine?

Pull them out and check!

I should drop this and get out, but I need to say this before I leave: I would never post the location of any member's house. That would be seriously uncool.

640 California Avenue is the location of the fire station in what Leon has posted as his home town.

I go bye-bye now.

But your seriousness and decisive actions that you foolishly take while negating all the advice that has been said is what makes this thread full of win and humorous!

I got that but at the present time I don't have that 30 dollars to spare on my dsm. But when I do have that and more I can replace the whole line with the stm fuel tank to rail kit OR peice together my own ss fuel line to a performance inline filter I saw on jegs. But that will take a bit of time. The car isn't going anywhere

So you don't have $30 to spend on proper maintenance but you have $150 to spend on an NGR BOV? Dude you're awesome. Absolutely awesome. Keep it up man, we're all rooting for you to make it into Comedy Central!

I'm gonna use a Wix filter like Justin suggested (thanks Justin) and go about fixing my car. Thanks everyone have a good day.

I'm done posting so just close the thread

Back to lurking

Darn and just when the show was getting good. I'll bring the beer and marshmellows. Just let me know when the campfire by the beach starts.

Your not listing to any of the suggestions to get your car started.
1. Have your verified you have proper fuel pressure (42-45psi)?
2.Have you checked your spark?
3.Have you held a screw driver to the injectors as your turn the engine over to see if the are opening and closing?
