Hi Harold, I don=E2=80=99t think they should be draining anything on a =
regular basis. I have never had anything come out of the pipes on my =
BT7, and I assumed they were there only to drain the inlet gallery if =
excessive fuel accumulated there. Under normal operation, I did not =
think anything should come out, but others may have a different =
experience.

Though I have owned an Austin-Healey for 7+ years it has only been on =
the road this year and I am still learning what is normal operation. =
When I park the car after a reasonably long drive a few drops of =
unidentified hydrocarbon liquid end up on the garage floor under the =
inlet manifold fuel drain pipes. Is this normal operation?

It stands to reason there wouldn't be drain pipes unless there was a =
need to drain something!
