    Should there be a fuel return line or not?

    im not certain for a v8 but if it is like my 4cy was it did have a return but not from the carb, there was a bowl on the bulk head that the fuel pump delivers the fuel to, it then has the take off to the carb and the return. the fuel pump runs continuously

    Gems v8 4.6 starts then dies

    Does sound like an air leak. Doesn't have holes from LPG injectors in manifold does it? I would think you would notice though

    studded tyres

    we run winter tyres on our 2wd cars, makes a big difference on our BMW even when the temps are low and the roads are a bit damp they help. I managed fine today when others can't make it out of their parking spot Studded are more for ice and compacted snow

    1987 ninety work in progress

    nice job, im doing some similar jobs on mine right now although mine was not anywhere near as bad as yours, i found welding the top corners of the bulk head difficult to weld neatly yours is not looking to bad. is there no possibility to have the chassis galvanized? might last a couple years more
