Hey guys,
Doing an engine swap. Holden v8 in place of a 202 in a WB.

The new engine has what appears to be a fuel pressure relief valve in the fuel line near the carb.


I currently have it plumbed into the line used by the charcoal canister to return the fuel to the tank and have the canister disconnected.

How am I suppose to connect this? The car does not have a separate line and I want to use the canister for compliance with ADRs.

Going from memory, the auto V8s ran an extra line from the tank to the engine, so your best bet would be to go and look at say a HX-WB Statesman and have a look at how the line is run and where it runs to, and copy it. If no-one else answers today ill have a look tonight and see if there is a picture of it in a parts catalogue.

That would explain it. I the donor was a WB statsman auto with air.

So can I replace this if I have a manual without air? Is the fuel pump different?

Yes was nly on 308/350 auto with air. Fuel pump is the same

Replace fuel line, or use 253 in line filter.

Fuel pump same
