swirl pot installed

Post by rmc123 »

Finally installed 1.5Lt Swirl pot in my VTec Mini.

Last year was a real pain at Mondello track days. After long left hand bends all the fuel would go to one side of the tank (Mini Pickup/Van fuel tank) so when I put my foot down on the exit there was a serious lack of power and had to splutter along until the power came back while other passing me by.

Also waiting for Yokohama 175/50/13 semi slicks for the front to help me stay on the track

HI,

No, I bought it built 1.5 years ago.

It's for the track and road. Great fun. Been watching your build, look excellent.
