[V8] ABH using lots of fuel!

[Dag Bøsterud]

Could someone take a picture of the fuel lines that goes across the intake 
manifold so that I'm certain
I get them right?  Preferably from a 4.2 / ABH..

/Dag
92 V8 4.2

The ECU does correct the spray time for system voltage, so I doubt
that is a big problem.
Crossing the fuel lines would be a big problem though. Can you
actually do this?  You would be forcing unregulated pressure fuel
into the fuel rail and that would very definitely cause a fuel
consumption problem.
