Fuel hose layout

[gf350]

Hi,
I'd really appreciate it if someone could send me a picture of the fuel hose layout as it attaches to the fuel rail inc the fuel pressure regulator. I've got one of the F.S.E power boost valve regulators if someone else has on of those that would be even better.

Many thanks in advance,
Gareth.

Can't give you a pic. but if its any help, the hose from the fuel filter connects to the fuel rail next to the regulator, and the return to the tank connects to the regulator itself.

Thanks Paul,
Can you tell me which connector on the fuel rail connects to the regulator, just wanted to check I'm putting it all back the right way.
Many thanks,
Gareth.

Sorry, didn't look very closely at my set up - I've got a Weber adjustable unit with the tank return connected on the end and the fuel rail connected on the side. The FSE unit may be different, I don't know. Does it not have any flow arrows on the body?

Thanks Andy,
I'm back on the wedge now. I have given up on the front springs for a while and set about sorting the fuel hoses out. Just trying to work out if I'd put the regualtor on the right connector before I continue.

I don't know if it's actually universal, but all the RV8s I've seen have been plumbed in like this:

Fuel supply hose connects to the rear offside corner of the fuel rail.
Fuel rail runs clockwise round the plenum and back to the same corner.
Fuel pressure regulator connects to the outlet of the fuel rail. Inlet to the regulator is axial, outlet from the side, return hose back to the tank. Regulator also normally has a vac takeoff to the plenum.

Hope that makes sense and helps with your problem.

Agree
Fuel pump to fuel rail - regulator outlet back to top of tank
