Thats what I was just thinking

DB discovered that my fuel filter was dirty. Holiday E85 ftw. I had gone from a gigantic UR filter that was noisy to the small Jegs/Russell inline filter that BlaqOPs provides. I should probably find a better middle ground.

Could I get that lucky? We'll find out later today.

Sooo, updates, did it work?

**mlomker** · 09-01-2010

Shane hasn't worked his 14 hour day just yet. I did order a Golan fuel filter, tho.

I figure no news is bad news these days.

The irony is that fuel cells aren't all that expensive. For the money that I have into the Full Blown setup I could have had one and ditched the stock tank altogether.

Cleaning the fuel filter helped a little but not enough to matter. I guess the next round of shooting in the dark will be afpr, BAP, and a larger fuel filter.

**Murlo26** · 09-02-2010

God, i hope i don't have these fueling issues, I don't think i will, but who knows.

Sucks man, i feel for ya.

Picked the car up at DB and it ran like butt all the way home. Obviously not as bad as before the intake was scaled but similar wild AFR swings. It's a scary feeling every time the car goes lean during cruise.

I'm going to try to install a shield/wind deflector over the filter tonight. There isn't a lot of clearance in the engine bay so I think there will be some Dremeling involved.

Nope, you're welcome here. I think what Aaron was observing is that you don't make many posts that don't mention your own car.

Don't you have the AMS intake shield?

I do but it was never installed (I have a catch can where that would have mounted). I was also planning to sell that intake once things are sorted.

I bought a shiny one. I'll take a look at some options for affixing it to the intake, perhaps I'll cut it down.

One funny thing is that the car idles perfectly, as if it doesn't have cams. It's really rich at idle due to the honking injectors so maybe that has something to do with it.
