FUEL’S ERRAND

-

IN STREET mode, the Carter pump (1) pulls fuel up out of the stock Falcon tank (2), priming the surge tank (3). After passing through the in-line filter (4), the Aeromotive A1000 (5) pumps pressurise­d fuel through the –10 line (6) up to the engine. The –8 line (7) is the return from the regulator (mounted in the engine bay), while the other two –8 lines (8) are breathers. Being fearful of getting dud PULP, Jarrod switches to VP MS109 race fuel at the track. To swap, he drains the surge tank via the fitting (9), switches the Carter pump off, then manually fills the surge tank with VP race gas via the boot-mounted filler (10). Easy-as dual-fuel! The car uses 1.5L per pass and the surge tank holds four litres.
