1. What OE Engine was in the car?
V6 has High Pressure F-pump that can be hard to regulate F-pressure to very low pressure most Carbs need.
2. How did the swap regulate F-pressure?
External Regulators need 3 port type. 1 fuel in, 1 fuel out to carb, 1 return.
F-Flow is Coolant and Lube to the F-pump and need return from regulator to "generate" constant flow.
3. Because messing up 1. and/or 2. can cause carb "float problems."
4. Only when Tank is Full?
May have F-pump or tank or Electric problems.
Electric problems could be anywhere as is w/ OE engines but more w/ swamps.
ALDL G is/was a Test Port to watch F-pump power. Could just put a light on G to Frame to see F-pump is On as far as Power To.
F-pump also needs Ground and G wouldn't tell you F-pump has iffy ground wire. OE ground wire is/was from the tank to 2 connections in the Cabin.
While Tank has Ground wire attach on/in that... Many think can Ground thru the Tank Straps etc but Do Not count on that.
5. Many Holley and other Carbs and other parts are not made for Transverse Engine Setups used in Fiero and other swaps.
So maybe use "Wrong" carb...
Or You take Inline engine and the Transverse mount it and do nothing then Oil Pan can "empty" Turning as O-pump go dry because oil will stay away from pickup. If O-pump pressure is connected F-pump wiring sim to OE wiring then Low/No O-pressure might case No power to F-pump. Is part why OE wiring has F-pump relay and OP sender switch.
