Hi list,
I just ordered up a VW surge tank from the local dealer. To my suprise, =
one was already in stock. It was listed as "FUEL FILTER." It got me =
thinking, that if I'm running at MPFI pressure, could I be able to use =
this tank AS my fuel filter?=20
Is there anything bad about having an inline Ford fuel pump _suck_ =
through the fuel filter?=20
Does anyone know how to actually plumb this sucker?
And if it's a fuel filter, could I have spent less than $40 by getting =
one from Autozone? :)
Chris
