Hi

I have a fuel leak near my pump on my nova and there is a pressure damper (I think) near it, it's leaking when the ign is switched on. Can this be bypassed or is it required for fuelling? By the way the engine is a C20xe, but there is already a pressure regulator on the rail, this is why am asking.

And finally what is it for?

Cheers
Craig.

Is the leak comming from the actual pipe itself?

As he ^^^ said, is it leaking from the damper of just from the pipe ?
If its the damper then yeah you can just ditch it, i aint running one on my LET, be worth replacing the fuel pipe as well.

Sweet looks like I will be ditching the damper. It is leaking from the damper itself.

Thanks for your help LADS!!! :thumb:
