5150 Wll Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 So, I've done a kade swap into my '72 WAGON. I've got it running using the CanAm box and all seems to work properly but I think I have a fuel issue. I attempted to run the return through the stock return setup on the wagon which didn't turn out so well. Leaking fuel everywhere in the rear of the car even with all new hoses....I assume because this system was designed mainly for vapor in a carb'd setup.... For those that have done this swap in a Wagon using a stock fuel tank, how did you set up your return and how did it work out? I'm guessing I'll need to remove the tank and have a return welded in? I did do a search on this and didn't find anything Goon specific...... Any help appreciated!!! Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 My understanding is that many use the stock feed line as the return line, and plumb a new bigger feed line. 5/16th / 8mm is stock diameter on a S13. 1 Quote Link to comment
5150 Wll Posted May 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 That makes sense..... Quote Link to comment
5150 Wll Posted May 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 I guess since i'm dropping the tank and going to have a new feed put in I might as well just have them do a 5/16 feed and return, no? Quote Link to comment
jesusno2 Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 In using 3/8 stuff or -6 or jic #6 stuff mainly cause its simple to find fittings for etc 5/16 is a really a oddball size in aftermarket fuel system stuff Quote Link to comment
