Aces Killshot Fusion EFI Swap

Main pressure fuel line is built and and I did flush it out.

Flushed it?

That was a mighty responsible thing to do.

In a previous life when I was building hydraulic hoses I would just blow them out with the shop air.

I know my compressor doesn't compare to that one but it the little rubber bits inside the hose didn't seem to want to get blown out this time.

I really don't want them to stick an injector since this is all downstream from the filter...

I got the main pressure fuel line installed between the fuel filter and the TB. Got a wild hair and test fit the air filter housing:



It cleared the throttle linkage but did hit the throttle cable bracket so to do it right I will need a spacer. It is very close to working and really looks seated from above.

I also noticed the TB doesn't have anything to engage the tabs on the air filter base to locate the air filter housing.



Keyed on the fuel pump to test it. Ran great until it started circulating and the pump quit. Checked the fuse and it popped so I put my tester on it and it was drawing 7.2A which explains why the 5A fuse popped. Stuck a 10A fuse in it and ran great...



I checked things topside all seemed well... but then I could hear fuel dripping down below so I killed power to the pump. It is leaking at the inlet to the pump. At first I was scared I was going to have to drop the tank because that is just behind the tank (front of the tank is about centered on the filter) then I just got to thinking in the shower I could remove the filter and move it ahead and pick on the hoses. If it is a issue with the seal at the fittings it should be easy to deal with. If its the hose connection it could get entertaining.
