I was wondering if someone could tell me the correct fuel flow pressure for an '80 Spit, running dual SU HS4's? I have a flooding problem that new floats and grosse jest have not solved. The car is s

Do you have an electric fuel pump, perchance? If it is one of the late model universal ones, it will put out way too much pressure (on the order of 15psi. I believe that somewhere between 2 and 4 ps

Does it say what carb. setup that is for? I recall reading (but I can't for the life of me remember where) that the 2-4 psi setting is correct. I recently was having a problem of too much pressure a

The Spitfire 1500 competition manual does say the 3.5 - 5 PSI, but they also are talking about quite a few modifications to the ZS carb in conjunction with this. Plugging holes with epoxy, using mod

FWIW, the specification for the original AC mechanical pump, as given in the Herald, Vitesse 6, Spitfire (through Mk.3) manual is 1.5-2.5 lb./sq. in. A "prepared" engine might require a bit more, but

Please excuse my post concerning the fuel pressure question by citing a source that was not germane to the question. I have an interest in the subject and don't wish to be sent to the penalty box (as

Hi Mark, I had (have) the same problem. (HS4s flooding float chambers) I replaced all the (usual) suspect parts to no avail. A fuel pressure regulator (purolator) dialed in to the lowest setting did
