    Status: offline     		Hard to understand your post but from what I can gather it sounds like you're saying that the fuel line from the cap to the pipe is filling up with fuel. If that's the case I'd try replace that piece of fuel line and the tank, sounds like there may be a leak in the tank somewhere.

    I just installed a OS CV-R in my XXX-NT and it was a straight swap with the .15FE that was in there. Just reuse your flywheel,collet and clutch bell with the spacer and it drops right in. The upgrade in power was HUGE, I had to loosen my slipper clutch quite a bit just to keep the truck going in a straight line after that.

    I was breaking in the new engine in about 30 minutes, it was a hassle free straight swap.

    Now I'm just wondering what else is going to break with the huge power increase I'm guessing my diff or spur gear won't last too much longer
