Yes! Piccies!
Odd how a thread about fuel cells lead to flames. Okay here's a pic: ![]() Carefully note that there is no pump - he's hand pressurizing the TANK to 6psi to feed the carb...

Any pics yet Tom. You're such a tease
![]() I'm trying to figure out what the hell I'm going to do with these damn fuel pumps. Can't run in tank. I think I might just throw 2 of the facet pumps up in the engine bay and say the hell with it. Since I'm on carbs I only need a couple PSI to be happy anyways -Jason |

My,my , my you are a vile individual John...such name calling, a childish, low brow admission to not having the ability to argue like an adult..the fucking pic was put up late last nite and you really expect the whole world to stop what they are doing and formulate a reply? Really?
Yup that is definitely an uncovered fuel cell, only one I've seen in few years now. The unsecured drier hose is a nice touch also. The cage isn't even current so it's an old build. Why it got thru tech is a mystery, maybe read the thread on bad scrutineers on SS ( if you can read SS). One pic of a car ( that should be the poster child for what not to do) proves what? Did you see the old Escort rebuild that Logic did on SS earlier this year? It had a proper , compliant fuel cell that was covered. I'll try and find the link. Anyhow, Why did Bush get re-elected? Why did OJ get off the first time? Where are the WMDs in Iraq? WTF is with Ellen being on Idol this year. Why are you such an asshole in the internet, you're not like that in person...Why did that car get thru tech? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure that particular car isn't going to be the one that sets the standard in the US. Sincerely. a goose stepping, Canadian loving, suck-buddy regional scrutineer Gene |
