[Quantum Owners] adding fuel out let to bottom of Xtreme tank
Sorry had missed this post. The original tank as supplied by Q hsd the oitlet at the bottom, but for some reason I cant remember, I beleve it was a late addition by Q, when they started the zetec and injection route. The inside of the tank has a kind of swirl baffle system, to attempt to prevent the outlet becoming fuelless! However this didnt work well on mine and some others that I know of. On left hand corners on the track or once going onto the M27, with guel tank less than half full, the engine would die through fuel starvation. I looked at putting a swirl pot on, but couldnt find any plce to put one. I eventually welded an aux catch tank under the existing outlet together with additional feed holes to cover all corners! I also kmow Q did a mod to another owners car which was simpler and I didnt think as good, but I do know it is working fine. I have photos that I can send you and more details if you are interested or better still can have a chat if you are at curborough. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Quantum Owners Group group.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Extreme fuel pump
Haven't been able to check the car yet but have checked the Zetec build manual and Omex wiri8ng diagram. Connector pin 3 (blue wire) of the Omex 500 is an aux used for a relay powering the fuel pump, coil pack, injectors and lambda. There is a wiring diagram for this in the Zetc/ Omex supplement. Can scan and send if you wish. On a separate note, I see your e mail address 'via gelia' this was the local name given to the road from Newhaven to Cromford, near where I grew up in Buxton. Is there a connection! Nigel -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Quantum Owners Group group.

Re: [Quantum Owners] adding fuel out let to bottom of Xtreme tank
thanks Nigel, friad Curborough at the moment would just be a dream! the car is off the road and I couldn't really justify the time away from home due to my young kids etc. thus while I can't really be driving the car, it is having project time instead in the eves. If you do have a pic or two, that could be really helpful, It sounds like what I was thinking of having done, just the chap who I would ask to weld it for me reckoned it might buckle the tank when I discussed it before.) (really with the v8, I could do with a bigger tank, period! I am planning to be on the skcc euro trip next may but even when I am running on the bike TBs and efi I might be running out before a petrol station!)

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Extreme fuel pump
Brown (Earth) and Black/Red (Supply) are Fords standard wire colours for the fuel pump on a donor Sierra. Maybe somebody used the Ford fuel pump connector and some of the wiring for the fuel pump.

It does mention fuel pump wiring on the rear connection section but the colours are not the same? Man says white/purple and black earth. Wires to my pump are brown and black/red?
