 |
|
Just fitted new TPS yesterday and on first start of the engine discovered fuel pissing out onto the top of the engine 
Turned out that the short hose from the pulse damper to the main injector circuit was perished and split near one end.
Easy enough to put right, but could have been a bit dodgey!

Yep those screws are a pain. I put a cloth under to catch the bits that I kept dropping.
Started the engine to test then discovered the fuel leak, and as you can imagine i switched off pretty quick.
Have still got to put the manifold and afm back on.
Will let you know how it goes.
