What happens here

The creator explains the simple fuel system: fuel is picked up from the cell, goes through a filter, through the rear firewall, into a hard line, to the mechanical fuel pump, and then to the carburetor. He justifies this setup by stating it's how the previous builder (Gibbs) had it, assuming there's a good reason for the design.

Goal: Understand the flow and components of the engine's fuel system.

Tools and materials

  • Carburetor — Mixing fuel and air for the engine
  • Fuel Cell ATL Super Cell — Source of fuel
  • Fuel Filter — Filtering fuel
  • Fuel Lines — Routing fuel
  • Hard Line — Main fuel line under the car
  • Mechanical Fuel Pump — Pumping fuel to the engine
  • Rear Firewall — Separating fuel cell from cockpit
