I am almost finished with putting a 16vt engine into an Alfa 145, however I've come across a few obstacles.
2 pipes from the 16vt inlet manifold - someone on fccuk identified them as being needed for the fuel vapour release/control.
The 145 has 2 blue pipes in the offside wing/suspension turret area which I think are the ones in question.
The 2 pipes off the manifold are circled in green in this picture:
However, here comes the dilemma.
The 145 (facelift) is non-return fuel system, the 16vt is return type. I found one of the blue pipes that I disconnected from the TS engine fed back to the tank so figured I could use that as a return pipe, but now I think I need to put in a seperate return fuel pipe as the blue piping is needed for the 2 pipes off the manifold.
Can someone confirm what the 2 pipes should connect to, and are they vacuum or pressured pipes?
Also which connector on the fuel rail is the feed and which is the return?
Thanks
