Freaking car broke down on me...fuel system issues. Today at lunch the car was really hard starting, so I knew I'd have to limp it home. Got to 88/355 and it died. Took me 5 minutes to get it started again. Babied it to 75th street...died. Got it started in a few minutes, limped it in heavy traffic a few more miles and finally DOA at Green rd/75th street. My wife didn't want to come out and bring me tools with the kids, so I had to call my Dad. I assumed I was getting no fuel pressure, and that the regulator was shot. I have 6 regulators on the shelf, so he brought all of them. Nope, not the regulator.
Somehow I managed to get it started again, and keeping it at 1800rom got me home, barely.
Tore into the car, and I burst the line from the pump to the top of the canister again. I was using a polyethelyne line in there and it's been great for a year...then poof.
I am sick of the crappy lines eadily available. I've tried everything except for N11, and I think that's next.
Sorry for the rant...Oh, and the whole time...stuck in a forest preserve area with not one tree or bush nearby and heavy traffic...I had to take a piss soooooo bad!
