HELP!!! fuel line
hi guys
im getting near to startin my engine and need some help with the fuel line
im using a 1.8 pinto on carbs
wat i need to know is how the fuel line should be set up
it would appear that the 1.8 has a mechanical fuel pump.
does the 2.0 litre have this?
could any1 tell me if i need a electric fuel pump or a return pipe.
ive tried looking in the haynes manual but it deosnt seem too clear about the 1.8 engines
cheers
patrick

The mech pump is up to the job, would even run a pair of 40's, you don't need an electric pump though most of us favour them.
The return pipe is not needed when using carbs and a low pressure pump.

I've fitted my 2.0i to run carbs. I got the mechanical pump from a 2.0- it's a bolt on fitment.
HTH,
