The hose fits tight but the clamp is just a hair too big for the pipe so I ordered new clamps

Yes, your clamps should solve the major problems. And allow you to accurately diagnose any others you may have.Comment

I just got my b6t motor running in my car with a 255 fuel pump and if it is lower on gas my fuel pump sucked the tank dry and it fell on its face for a second and then ran good again. I filled mine up and it solved the problem. Just something to try93 Festiva L White B6T

^ that's a sign of a need to lift your pump up about 1/4" or dent the tank... the area around the sump pickup is too close to the surface to allow the fuel to fill the area fast enough when the depth doesn't provide enough pressure to do it via gravity.
Slayer, try pushing the tank down or the punp up in the sump area and retest.Trees aren't kind to me...

What's your fuel pressure? Do you have a real rising rate 1:1 regulator?Comment
-
B6T should already have the proper regulator. I think a fuel pressure test is in order though.91GL BP/F3A with boost

Just going off my dsm knowledge. Which is nothing to sneaze at.......with a 255 pump in the car. The stock regulator can't handle that much flow......regardless putting a gauge on there is a good idea.Comment

Also. How are your spark plugs and wires? Are gapped correctly?Comment

Put the stock injectors back for now? Whenever I have a problem I try to undo whatever I did.91 Festiva BP Autocross/Track/Rallycross hopeful

I replaced the regulator with an oem regulator and I haven't checked fuel pressure but I will asap. If it is low what could the problem be? New spark plugs, didn't check gap and I have new 8mm Taylor wires-93' Festiva L (B6T swap in progress)
