'wet' vacuum hose...

[Mini1293]

Hey guys.

Not een on here in a while, since installing a MJLJ into my Mini a couple of years ago.


Iv'e had a few problems here and there with the car in general, not so much with the ignition.

So i'm in the process of sorting a few things out, including a fueling issue.

While working under the dash, i knocked the vacuum hose off. Putting it back on i noticed it was a little 'wet', this can only be petrol.

Is this normal / ok??

this is where my my take off is located...



Cheers

Is the Megajolt mounted below the level of the tapping in the inlet? I had something similar happen on a vacuum gauge some years ago, fuel from the fuel vapour collects in the tube. Apart from removing the tube periodically to blow it through it wasn't a problem, not sure how the MAP sensor reacts to getting fuel in it though.
You could try fitting a small paper element fuel filter in the line to act as a fuel vapour trap.
