Yup if you have that restrictor in place on that 5/16" side that will spike the pressure. Drill that out, put a slit or drill a hole in the top of that 1/4" like I did, and hook it all back up. See how it runs then.
Fuel coming out of my vent tube

That sh*t should be in a tech/knowledge based post. I'm sure this won't be the last time this happens to someone.
I was so excited to get this going I go up at 5 this morning and dropped the tank in my driveway. All complete and running great, 58 psi of fuel pressure with engine running and vacuum line from the regulator removed. Again, thank you so much. I know you saved me a lot of headache.
I read about it some point in 2010, but yea it was like 2 sentences not picture detailed like I did.
I do have it posted in my build thread here..

But yea, could probably make a post with it.
The one on the regulator on the manifold. And drove around a bunch today and no fuel coming out of the vent tube. I didn’t have anything to make a slot so I drilled an 1/8” hole.
I referenced your build thread a lot when planning and executing. Somehow I missed the whole sender thing so I really appreciate you sharing again.I read about it some point in 2010, but yea it was like 2 sentences not picture detailed like I did.

Oh, I did. I just read that you had to test by pulling the line. After I hooked it back up I was at 55 psi.
