MQ fuel problem

Post by psyosphere »

Thanks for the people that helped with my last problem with my MQ not have any spark.
i have it all up and running now but im having a fuel problem, it starts and idles well till i give it a nice long rev, then when i try a rev it again its like the fuel is starving and the carbie can't refill quick enough (im using a weber 28/36dcd carbie).
could the problem be the standard electric fuel pump has'nt got a high enough flow rate or the fuel pump is about to die?? or could i installing a second standard electic fuel pump to pick up the folw rate more??
also could it be that i have added 2 extra fuel filters on the fuel in line and the return line??

this never ends....

I used the standard fuel pumps on my mk to run a 308 with a four-barrel Quadra jet with no problems.
It could be your fuel pump on the way out, undo it of the carbie and run the pump it to see if it is running fuel continually.
But first I would check the filters, as it sound like a blocked fuel filter to me.
