On my $150 '79 XJ6, I'm getting rid of the dual tank system and the switchover valves, etc. Basically I removed the switches and tees, but I'm not sure quite what to do with this bit - supposedly its a "air bleed valve" or "purge valve" that maintains pressure in the line for quick starts.
Obviously there is an inlet from the pump, an outlet (with 1-way valve) to the fuel injection rail, and a sencond outlet to the fuel return system.
My gut is to simply remove it (replace it with a straight section of hose). The only consequence that I can think of is that it might take a couple of starts to build pressure in the sytem, and run any air bubbles through the fuel lines......
Am I getting into trouble? Should I keep it and just plug the outlet to the return line (thus keeping the 1-way valve intact)?
Yes, I posting this on jag-lovers too (but I like this group better)
