useless Member 259 Member For: 20y 5m 5d Gender: Male Posted 17/08/07 08:15 AM Share Posted 17/08/07 08:15 AM (edited) Guys.I would like to find something out.How does the ford fuel tank swirlpot maintain a full fuel level for the pump? ?Does it rely on the returned fuel bypassed from the regulator? Or does it somehow draw fuel from underneath the pot? Edited 17/08/07 08:16 AM by useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
