I'm one of the guilty parties. My engine seemed to stumble like fuel starvation at around 5000 rpm, and I was messing with e-tubes and float levels to fix it. Then it hit me, sounded like fuel starvation (have the proper regulator and inline gage set at just over 3 psi). So I plugged the output to the return line and capped the other end going back to the tank.
NEW CAR!! No more stumble, and a full on screamer very smoothly right on up to 6500 rpm and way too fast in second gear on a long freeway on ramp. Blew right by the traffic on the freeway. Not going to do that again.
That was a couple of months ago, and I'm still waiting to heal up and do a little more tweaking to the idle jet holder. Phil (priobe) knows what I'm talking about. Always several schools of thought on these subjects and what's right for one may not suit another. No return line is the way I'm going to roll.
