You have to figure the inlet hole in the tank is the important height,
not so much the sock. You may have to bite the bullet and go to a swirl
pot. Running really sticky tires?

Subject: fuel starving going left?


At 1/2 tank my car starves for fuel and sputters when I corner to the
left and only when cornering hard left. Sure seems like a fuel pickup
issue. some serches on Miata.net showed others had this problem but the
source of the problem was not always clear. Mine has an entirely bran
new fuel system, new lines New fuel filter, and a new fuel pump.  Fuel
lines have all stainless -6 AN ends silver brazed on the hard lines with
AN fitttings everywhere. Fuel filter is like a stock one but is setup
for AN fittings as well. Fuel pump is not stock It is a 50mm Denso supra
pump and the mounting has been modified using RX7 bracketry to make it
secure and fit. The sock on the fuel pump is also not the same as a
stock miata one. the depth the sock sticks in the tank might be 1/4"
higher than stock due to the angels but I have a hard time believing it
makes that much diffferance. Pictures attached
 
 
It seems like before it would run down to the last teaspoon of gas in
the tank. is it really possible this sock on the pump is making that
much differance?
 
Any Ideas
 
Bob
