Red Three and Michael H, you were right. All I changed was to add a little more pinch to the hose clamp ears at the injector inlets and go for a test run. With a new 5# dry chem on the seat next to me, I did 160 miles on twisty mountain roads, the only kind of road to my west, gloat, with nary a wisp nor whiff of petrol in the air. Life is, once again, good. PaulR, I don't have the cooling fan, nor heat shield on the fuel pipe you mentioned. Still, it's good to know I'm not alone in experiencing fuel on the windshield and to learn that there's another possible source.
