A previous owner has fitted an electric fuel pump just under the tank, the pipe then go to a pressure valve cum filter under the bonnet, so from there the usual feed to the carbs.
My question.
Before the feed enters the carbs, a branch off. This I would imagine returns excess petrol to the tank, (being engrossed with the rest of the car refurb, I have not checked,) so, starting up the car, I sometimes have fuel dumped at an alarming rate from the carb overflow pipes.
So back to the branch off, why is this fuel not returning to the tank, if the carb floats have shut of?
There is, in this pipe a visual amount of petrol, about 9" which does not seem to move, blocked??
