Hi,

Can someone please clarify what connector type and sizing the male fitments are on the fuel rails? As attached and circled from the main feed fuel line?

Regards

 

M16 X 1.5 with a 60 degree cone but make sure you specify female fittings !! You can get from think Automotive.

 

Thanks johnny

 

No problem, you can get in -6 and 8 I believe.

 

Yeah i can find an-10 male to m16 x 1.5 male but not an-10 male to m16 x 1.5 female, so think i will have to get m16 x 1.5 female to female, then use the an-10 male to m16 x 1.5 male

 

I have -6 to each rail.

 

Hi johnny, do you know if the fuel return fitting is also m16 x.5? The one located below the plenum/throttlebody after the fuel cooler?

 

UK cars don't have fuel coolers, I have only ever seen one so I cant answer that i'm afraid.

 

Ahh ok that makes sense, do you know exactly where the fuel return routes back?

 

Ill have to take some pics of the fuel rails, but the return is on the inside of the rail where the reg is.

 

Hi, ok thanks, i can see the return near the fuel regulator but cant trace it further than this, i can see a connector under the plenum/tb which runs near where the old stock filter use to run and then under the coolant tank and to the front, so im thinking this could be the return but hard to see at the moment with the engine back in the car

 

OK dude Ill try talk you thru it, on your RHD car the fuel goes in the Passenger rail at the rear of the car, it goes forward along the rail and exits at the front on the inside of the rail where it crosses to the back of the drivers side rail on the inside and goes forward to the reg end where it exits the the drivers rail and comes back across to the passenger side, the return is easy to spot as its a black plastic pipe with a push fit end.

 

Ok perfect, so the return is routed back through under the plenum/throttle body and comes out where the passenger rail is or near there, i can see some metal piping and which then goes to plastic piping. I just need to pick this up with my fuel lines.

 

Correct dude, if you get stuck call me at Austec Racing 01293 531080 or 07807 565397.
