The fuel plumbing for an EFII system is distinctly different from that of a gravity feed type system found in carbureted engines.

EFII requires high pressure fuel pumps which circulated fuel in a constant loop from tanks to feed rail and back to tanks. This keep fuel cool by shedding heat picked up while traveling through the engine compartment.

To resolve:

  • Use low point standpipe drains for supply lines coming from tanks?
  • Fuel pump module location: Firewall?
  • Line routing for filters, etc.

Potential designs:
