Evening folks, I hope you wont mind me asking about another 80's icon on the 'zone however...
As well as the 325, I've a Rover SD1 Vitesse Twin Plenum. The fuel return line is a translucent nylon pipe and I've noticed this evening that I'm getting air bubbles thru the return line. Is this normal or is this a symptom of (say) a failed fuel pressure regulator? Would anything else let air in the system as I'm fairly sure it meant to be a sealed system???

Regards
Iain

How is the car behaving ? If it's running well, I wouldn't think it's a problem.
If it ain't broke..
Fix it till it is :)
