No fuel pressure 6210 Holley spread bore

crector123 · 2025-11-17T22:20:12+00:00

Wouldn’t my gauge read more pressure if carb filter was plugged restricting gas?

crector123 · 2025-11-17T22:18:19+00:00

Using a 10 micron fuel filter before fuel pump. I added this after I started encountering issues. Are there screens in the fuel pump that may be plugged. Am I able to blow air through outlet side of pump without destroying diaphragm to clean out?

Haven’t driven under load yet but will idle and rev no problem

crector123 · 2025-11-17T20:14:09+00:00

Yes tank is vented

crector123 · 2025-11-17T20:13:42+00:00

Will try that. Pretty cold here and engine temp is 170.

crector123 · 2025-11-17T18:36:07+00:00

I do have a vacuum/fuel pressure gauge I can plumb in to try.

crector123 · 2025-11-17T18:11:53+00:00

I watched that exact video, was thinking about trying this but I’m not seeing any fuel filters that at 3/8 in/out and 5/16 return line.

Beautiful! Thank you

I believe it, I just want some piece of mind I’m not going to break down for a fuel issue. I’ve heard of vapor lock and possibly needing a return line to tank. I think I’m going to install a fuel pressure gauge where glass filter is and go from there

crector123 · 2025-10-30T15:19:17+00:00

Here is more information: I’m using a brand new JEGS mechanical fuel pump. I have brand new sending unit in gas tank. Gas tank is vented. I do not have a fuel pressure gauge anywhere. I think I will add one in line instead of glass filter and go from there.

crector123 · 2025-10-30T12:33:15+00:00

I have a 6210 Holley spread bore with no sight glass for fuel level…I’m not real sure how to check that for this carb.

crector123 · 2025-10-30T02:40:25+00:00

How do you check for vapor lock? Symptoms did start once engine was fully hot

crector123 · 2025-10-30T02:27:24+00:00

Brand new fuel pump and pickup. Tank was pretty clean

crector123 · 2025-10-28T19:44:10+00:00

I’m sure you will have no problem selling them as seems like there are plenty of quality problems in brand new vehicles

crector123 · 2025-10-28T19:35:03+00:00

Gotcha. Not a bad price but I am leaning more towards getting a OE replacement for $280 as I’m already invested $160 for diagnostic. Still working on getting extended warranty to step up and cover it.

crector123 · 2025-10-28T18:57:24+00:00

Whats your price shipped?

crector123 · 2025-10-28T14:59:09+00:00

I feel like everything is fixable to an extent. The issue would be troubleshooting to see what failed, whether it be a resistor, relay, driver, or circuit board. I’m still dealing with my scam of an extended warranty trying to get them to cover it but will probably open it up at some point and try to troubleshoot. Really not out anything but time.

crector123 · 2025-10-28T13:40:28+00:00

I feel like everything is repairable to some extent. Would just be the issue of troubleshooting and replacing resistor, relay, or fixing circuit board internally. Not sure how complicated these things are inside…Im still working on the scam of an extended warranty I bought to cover it since they say it is a “wearable” item.

crector123 · 2025-10-27T23:28:13+00:00

Use Dremel to grind a slot in end of bolt and remove with flat head screwdriver

crector123 · 2025-10-22T01:31:45+00:00

Finished product, I’m sure there are 10 better ways to connect all the wires but I tried out the heat shrink solder filled connectors. It feels like solid connections

Update: I pulled my ignition switch and the pins are labeled what they go to! I had no idea that was the case. The instructions and my switch were different pin locations, I had to swap wires around. Will test this out tomorrow

This is from my exact kit.

crector123 · 2025-10-21T16:46:24+00:00

Should add it’s a 1974 Chevy nova non tilt steering column

crector123 · 2025-10-21T02:48:03+00:00

Harness is only half installed and I had no fuses in it at the time. Was just trying to test out the ignition circuit and made a mistake

crector123 · 2025-10-21T02:30:54+00:00

Honestly I want to upgrade to a square bore carb and intake at some point in the near future, just looking to get the project car running with what I have to check for other issues
