Bubbles in the fuel filter

[gldgti]

nice work syncro,

bubbles in your fuel filter shouldnt cause an issue. your carbie (you have a carbie engine??) has a float chamber which fills up with fuel and that is where fuel is mainly drawn from. if air is getting into the fuel system, it might lessen the efficiency of the system and not fill up the float chamber quickly enough, so after you gun it you might find you have a few low power moments.

mollins' yellow mk1 has a bit of an issue with fuel starvation because we're sure there is something solid inside the tank that occasionally gets sucked over the pickup - by blowing back through the line the problem goes away!

Got the little Mk1 back (after a long and painful journey to Pete's house of miracles). He said that he replaced the condenser and re-seated the jets in the carby (?). Pete did agree that the bubbles shouldn't cause any problems.

Anyway, She runs like she should – crisply and smoothly – which is great. Now we are back on the road and having fun again, YAY!!!
