Cleaning Fuel Tanks
Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 10:16 pm
So, ive been having heaps of fuel related problems with my rover.
So far -
-Changed the slow electric fuel pump for new
-Changed all filters we could find
-Pulled and cleaned carbies, they are all fine & functioning
The problem-
The flow of fuel becomes very stagered to the point where it can only just feed one carby, so the engine chugs on 4 cyclinders both under load and when reving in nuetral.
I checked the tank tonight, and there is a bit of crud in the bottom which may be blocking the pick up.
So is there any special products to aid the cleaning process? Or is it just going to be flushing the crap out with fuel through the drain plug?
Any advice would be great.
