Fuel Return for EFI in a 1974 Opel
The Problem: Tank with no return line, and only 1/4" vent lines.

The Solutions :

1 - Braze/Weld to tank a nipple : Not always easy to do or simple

2 - Edelbrock Fuel Sump - https://amzn.to/3eytYr4 at $340 a decent option. Requires use of a low pressure fuel pump to feed it.

3 - 2 in and 1 out fuel filter - This works BUT you can end up with hot fuel and problems with the fuel pump dying early due to pressure and heat.

4 - An In Tank setup that is available, but in my case wouldn't fit in the tank - https://amzn.to/2R2Evmc

OR

5 - This crazy idea I got from the fact I already had a 3 psi electric pump in the car and a high pressure inline pump that used AN fittings.


In theory it is very similar to #2.. I KNOW the system will work. Its a matter of reliability and how well the High pressure fuel pump handles the positive pressure on the back of it. It should help the pump.. BUT it could cause cavation. Given the inline styles of pumps I don't think that would be an issue.

What do you all think…

Tlee's 73 GT from purchase to today

I have been tinkering with this 73 gt since I bought it and have gained alot of confidants and learned a ton from all the great members in the opel world. But had not thought about a project post to share and save all the work and experience I've gained over the almost year I have owned it. Although I new it needed work I had no idea how much until I got it home. So we start today with where I started.
