Did many of you suffer from your engine cutting out or spluttering at Mondello?
If so like me you got fuel surge.

The Subaru Impreza suffers badly from fuel surge when the fuel level drops below 1/4 tank. This can cause misfires if the car is being used hard. We have addressed this by producing a high pressure fuel pump and swirlpot kit. The standard intank pump acts as a lift pump feeding fuel into the swirl pot which inturn feeds ,surge free, fuel to the high pressure pump. This neat combined tank and pump fits on the front bulkhead and l/h chassis rail.

I had it on my last car and it was excellent. Must do it to this one or keep my tank full.

Thumbs down

i had the same problem with the p1 when it got below half tank, that high pressure fuel pump and swirlpot kit sounds like a good job, any price figures for it.
thanks davy b.
