Default Re: Fuel intake issue (I hope)???

Make sure the sealing rings on the filters are not twisted and that you have a tight seal. Usually a little silicon grease will help on them and the threads. Another thought would be to make sure your fuel lines are the same size coming from the fuel tank to the separators and then from the filters to the engines. Those big V-6s like 3/8" lines!
Then check the hose clamps. The fuel bulb could have a crack in it that you can't see. If they are old, just go ahead and replace the lines and bulbs. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
