3rd fuel line on Subaru motor


Hi

Does anyone know what the 3rd fuel line on the WRX motor is for? Do I tee it or block it?

Hi

No it has 3 lines grouped together, I would assume 2 are inlet and return, not sure what the other ones for.

yeah. I ran two new 8mm lines for the fuel feed and return. Then used the stock VW small fuel line for the fuel tank vent.

yeah, you have to run whatever emmission gear the motor came with. In my case a carbon cannister and a cat. The carbon cannister is so small anyway. Mine's smaller than a coke can.

would this be the same on other earlier engines? i have 3 similar lines from my engine (ea81). one isnt hooked up and at the moment the engine will only run for about 10sec before it dies of lack of fuel, would the 3rd line to the cannister solve this?
