hi all .
i have bought a toyota hilux with chev v6 in it .
if i leave it idel to long on a hill or even my drive way it will run out off fuel even with half a tank .
wonce it runs out off fuel from carbie it wont suck fuel unless it,s on the flat and still tack,s far to long.
it has 350 holly and a holly red fuel pump .
any ideas would be a big help.
thanks ricky
hi .
has any one had similiar problem ?
would a surge tank set up help ?
or just be done with it and put gas on it
for when im hill climbing ?
please help
Sounds like the pick up in your fuel tank might have broken, or possible just been shithouse to begin with. Try parking your car somewhere that it runs out of fuel, then disconnect the fuel filter and blow compressed air up the pipe. If the fuel bubbles ?(ie. the pick up is still under the fuel level) then begin looking at surge tank options etc. but if it does not bubble then the pick up is not sitting in fuel and therein your problem lies.
