Bubbling sound coming from fuel tank on start up

Legend...thanks mate.

On the weekend, it looked like both the FPR & MAP vac lines ran under the manifold. I'll have another look tonight. Hope I don't have to pull the manifold to replace that vac line.

Np...just close your eyes and use the force to trace it to its point of origin

It goes through the bananas to a barb on front of manifold

I'll be honest, I haven't chimed in because I don't know the vac config for V8s

I replaced the vac hose yesterday but I'll be buggered if I can unscrew the regulator. What a crap spot for the screw. Lost the stubby screwdriver down in the bowels and had to jack the car up to retrieve it.

Any hints for that ?

Just bumpin in hope.

Ive never worked on a V8...but on the V6 its not to hard to lift the whole fuel rail off the engine

 

[Brisbarnz]

I remove fuel rail it's easier that way.

OK, thanks guys. Time to suss out how to remove the fuel rail !

In case you haven't already guessed, I'm not the most mechanically astute lol.

@1994vr, yeah, I have the part.....just need to fit the thing.
