[Roadsters] Fuel leak, 2000 " thing " ID

[Gary and Cindy Ault]

Charlie,

Did you mean Solex dampers?  I'm not sure what those are.  The SU
carb setup on 
the 2L has a fuel return valve in the fuel line at the rear
carb.  The valve 
allows excess fuel to be returned to the fuel tank as part
of emissions 
controls.  The outlet of that valve should be connected to a
fuel line going 
into towards the fire wall, where it runs in parallel with
the line from the 
tank to the fuel filter or pump.  The valves are available
new (expensive) and 
used.  I'm sure I have one I would be willing to part
with, but I'd want a 
picture off-list to make sure we're talking about the
same thing.

I am not aware of any similar such device on Solex cars.  My
'67-1/2 2000 does 
not have the return line to the fuel tank.

Gary

Thusly spake Charles Vanderburg
I am a 1600 guy, but I believe that there is a fuel pressure regulator 
on the
rear 2L carb. Maybe that is what you are looking at?

Peace,
Pat
