DeTomaso Mailing List: June 98, Message #366

I am unsure of the particulars of your system, but when I replaced mine
with a Hall 
setup, I ran into similar problems.  What I had to do was jack the rear
of the car up about 
a foot( I max out my jack) and then filled the system.  I started it and
let it run for a few minutes then 
I filled the tank again.  I then put the car down, started her up and
waited.  No flood so I filled the 
overflow to about half, and went out cruising.  I did this about 2 years
ago, so I dont remember all the details.

Hope this helps.
