Right hand cornering and cutting out

i have had the same problem with my caddy tank for ages. turns out there is a metal pipe that is supposed to be connected to the outlet by a small rubber pipe but it had fallen off.

"There seems to be a lot of debate regarding how big you should make a fuel surge tank. Everybody will give you a diffrent answer from no surge tank at all to 3L. Some people even claim you need a 5L one for drifting So I'll try and clear it up for you (the way I see it, if you think I'm wrong please abuse me!) The size of your fuel surge tank really depends on your engines fuel system. You can use maths to work out how big it needs to be: Take for example my RB30/25. It runs 6 fuel injectors that flow 270cc (270ml) of fuel per minute at 43psi (2.96 bar) at 100% duty cycle Therefore your total maximum fuel flow is 1.620L per minute. This figure is calculated by multiplying your number of fuel injectors by the size of your injectors. So in a surge condition in your fuel tank when your lift pump is sucking nothing but air a 1.620L fuel tank will give me a whole minute of surge "protection" But really the sort of turn that would create a condition like that would have to be a big one. I mean how many places are there where you can pull a high G turn like that for over a minute (beside the donut pad!) I doubt that drifters can hold a high G drift without changeing direction for over a minute. So what I do is half that figure. So now I'm down to a 810cc (.81L) surge tank. Its small and compact and gives me a whole 30 seconds.
