fuel problem

Forum: 

hi there im new to the sportrack ive purchased a 1995 sportrack no tax or mot im going to be using it for off road use only the fuel pump was dead so ive put a new pump on that i purchased off ebay its a 3 bar pump. When i first fitted it i only ran it for a few minutes before fuel was dripping down out of the engine bay upon further investigation it seems that the fuel is getting inside the engine coming up internal oil ways filling up the rocker cover then the excess is being pumped out of the breather into the inlet manifold and then dumping it all over the engine is there any common faults that this could be cheers spud

Fuel line

Are you sure the fuel line is connected to the correct place!?

The fuel filter is located behind the engine, quite high up. From there, there should be a fuel hose to a square metal rail, located between the inlet manifold and the engine block. It might even say 'fuel' on the hose.

yes its connected to the

yes its connected to the correct point i was just wandering if there were any common problems like a gasket gone some where causing the fuel to get into the engine and yes the engine ran for a few minutes before fuel started dripping from the engine bay
