90518, Messed up on fuel system.
Posted by DarkEclips96, Oct-10-05 11:29 AM
After talking to a member on here I realized I made a mistake. I dont have a cartech or SFMU, just a FMU (not sure what brand, its all silver). Well for this I shouldnt be removing the stock fpr becuase this fmu isnt adjustable. So I should be putting this FMU under my car between the stock return line like gsgoinfast did and run a vacuum line to the manifold. It seems like most people have it in there engine bay, they running 2 lines under the car? For the test port, Im basically somehow just attaching a fuel pressure gauges to it. But then whats the point if I cant adjust fuel pressure..

By the way, its a 96.

Hmm, well I just was looking thre old post and came across your oil drain set up and it looked great. Was wondering where you got all the stuff for that. Or would you suggest just getting one of these...http://www.turbosupply.shoppingcartsplus.com/page/page/972151.htm If so, what bulkhead.

It just baffles me that all of you are having this much trouble out of your fuel system. It is so freaking simple to do!!!

Yea it actually wasnt hard its just when you think your installing something you dont have, it can throw you off. But that is my fault for not picking up on it.

DJ, i searched everywhere for those dam parts, where did you get them?

http://www.anplumbing.com:

3/8"NPT to -10AN male adaptor- part #981611

-10AN bulkhead adaptor- #983710 for 45degree or # 983210 for straight

2 pack -10an Earl's Stat-O-Seals- call and ask they arent on the website right now.

And the Resistoflex -10AN line:
I got from a local overstock aerospace distributor. good for high press. and most importantly resistant to all fluids, flex, and high temp since it sits right next to my dp. Overkill yes but for $14.00 it was worth it. Couldnt even get AN hose fittings for that price.

I think I spent around $47 for the whole setup. This was before Function7 even made those for the 16g. They are an awesome company. They took my specs that I sent them and milled up the 16g adaptors. Sold it to me for the same price you see on ebay. Highly recommended. Oh and I didn't have to send it back 3 times to have it "re-done"!! lol.

If you're welding an AN bung on, you don't use a bulkhead fitting. Regardless you'll need a -10 AN female hose end for your line.

Alright, after reading throught old posts apparently its a -8an fitting for the tap. should i get a -10an to -8an fitting. I emailed anplumbing about my set-up, only thing Im not sure about is going into pan what ill need to fit on the hahn tap.

Sorry for all these stupid questions. I suck with these fittings and lines. Hopefully after I get these parts I will be boosting!

Tell anplumbing what you have and what you need. They are very helpful and if you dig around on their website they have some good tutorial/explanation pages of what AN fittings are all about.
Tell them you need a 3/8"NPT (national pipe thread) to -8AN male. The only thing that has changed here is the size of the fittings you are using. Then get an -8AN line and be done with it. dont go and buy -10an fittings and then use adaptors to a -8an. think about simplest solutions here.
