What dos eeveryone think on installing one of these inline of our fuel system like right before the fuel rail? Providing a bit of extra benifit of cooler fuel.

Heat Sink

wonder what would be required in fitting this inline?

 

You could maybe wrap the fuel line with some kind of insulating material also.

 

He, my fuel rail and the metal lines near it get the most head soaked just form touching the head. Having a plastic fuel rail and some insulated lines would do more than that heat sink could.

 

What does it matter if the fuel is colder? Condense more through smaller injectors?

Cools the air charge a little bit more.

 

also less change of pre-ignition, better fuel economy etc. heat is always the enemy of engines.

Ive warped mine in the cool tape stuff but im more or less interested in the type of fitting on our fuel rails and if it detachable and i can add a cooler like this inline with maybe just an adapter or something right before the fuel rail? The fuel system is the only area on our cars i haven't dived into in depth. only thing I've done is filter change, even when i did full rebuild myself i didn't touch it just moved it aside. a -8an fitting or something like that from jegs or napa or whatever.

 

im interested in seeing this on a Balt

 

fuel cooler= e85 ^_^

Someone should test this out

 

dont waste your money det some dei fuel line wrap for over the valve cover

 

it cant hurt to try it, im definitely going to put one on if I can figure out what fittings I need i'm not quite sure how the fuel line attaches to the fuel rail on our cars. Ill look into it a bit more and maybe post up what I come up with. it would be done inline right before the fuel rail on our cars.

 

Save your money, and it can hurt by making more fuel connections that could possibly leak.

 

make sure its not leaking before you go out and do a run...

 

There's no point in this really. Cobalts use a returnless fuel system. That means that any heat gain that can happen will be in the fuel rail and under the hood. That's pretty much it. If you want to, wrap the rail in gold foil. Like this: Aaron's fuel rail mod - GrandAmGT.com Forum

A fuel cooler is useful for older return style systems that would return hot fuel to the tank.
