1. Is the fuel accumulator still required in this setup? Or should we remove and run lines direct to fuel filter then return direct from the FPR to return line?
NO, Fuel is routed: Tank>Fuel Pump>Fuel Filter>Fuel Rail>Pressure Regulator>Back to tank.
2. Do we need to hookup vacuum hose off FPR? If so, where to?
I had the same question when I did mine and Clewett told me it was not necessary.
3. Is there a list of the electrical which needs to stay connected? Know we need to keep the oil sensors, fan and alt, starter, rear lights, reverse light.
Removing CDI, distrib, current air pressure.
You will be removing your CDI and distributor. All other electrical stays. I had "Timmy 2" make me a new engine wire harness since mine was brittle. He removed thermo-time switch wiring and added a main power wire that I used to supply power to my electromotive computer. He also added a "switched power wire -the electromotive needs both. I mounted my computer under the driver seat but ran the wires to the rear where they connect to my rear fuse panel.
We have the 6ft harness and will be extending to around 10 ft to install under the pass seat.
I ordered the extra long 12ft wire harness from Clewett. This gave me plenty of wire to work with. I ended up cutting about 3' from each wire at each sensor. The extra long harness enabled me to mount the computer under the seat, run the harness parallel to the stock wire harness and then around the rear fire wall to rear fuse panel. where the CDI was, I mounted the controller for the O2 sensor. and the two relays that are used for the computer and the fuel pump. from there all wires are routed to the various sensors. My goal was to have a very clean engine compartment.
Good luck with your project - you will be happy when you get it all done.
Appreciate the help. Thank you
Progress to date and fuel filter setup.
