I had reason to get under the Cobra on the weekend just after an hour or so drive. I noticed the fuel tank was pretty warm and it got me thinking about the impact on performance of hot fuel.
I am running a big Bosch external fuel pump with a return line to an internal tank swirl pot.
As the Bosch pump is rated for 800 odd HP and most of the time I'd be lucky to be using 100 HP I figure most of the fuel is just going around in circles getting warmer on each journey through the engine bay.
Series 2 Jaguars used to have a fuel cooler that used the AC to cool the fuel before it went back to the tank so Jaguar saw this as an issue.
Has anyone else seen this as an issue? and are there fuel coolers available? I suppose I could run the fuel line through the esky (chilly bin)
as long as the beer didn't heat up.
