Hello All,
this is my first of many questions as I embark on getting my 1973 914 back on the road. I purchased the car from a friend who said it ran great before his voltage regulator began giving him issues. I was storing the car for several years for him before buying it. I know would like to see it running again. It is a 73 1.7L with dual webers. The fuel tank was cleaned and out of the car. I went to reinstall the tank and replace the rubber lines when I noticed that both the fuel outlets on the bottom of the tank were capped off . I can not locate fuel pipe for the line to attach to the tank. I have also been told that I only need the supply line and can cap off the return line of the original fuel injection set up. Any advice or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. Where can I source the fuel pipes and nuts? Auto Atlanta does not have them currently. Thanks |

I have carbs and a return. Sometimes on start (letting the fuel pump run before the starter), I can hear bubbles come through the line. Not sure if the fuel return prevents vapor lock but I think it would.
