QUOTE(wonkipop @ Aug 7 2024, 04:56 AM)  QUOTE(Artfrombama @ Aug 7 2024, 01:09 AM) QUOTE(Shivers @ Jul 15 2024, 09:16 AM) I had a leak develop under the fuel tank. Pulled the tank, changed the lines and put it back in. I took it for a drive and it was fine until it died. I stayed near home so I pushed it back and pulled the tank again. When it got warm the fuel line kinked and cut off the fuel. You waited for 3 hours for AAA, I don't think I've ever had vapor lock last that long after the car was off Bingo! I pulled the fuel pump (for the fourth time) and noticed no fuel was coming from the supply line. The 9mm line underneath the tank was kinked. Shortened the hoses to remove the loops and all is well. I feel like an idiot for not examining those hoses more carefully. f$%k yes. you are a dead set hero for nailing and posting. hopefully some other poor bastard stuck in a carpark can go straight to the problem. go give that humungous 1.8 73 hp hunk of "power" some serious canning.
