mickyfin32 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 hello for the last 3 weeks been trying to track down the main water pipe that comes from the block (left side as you look into engine bay) runs along the fan cover and connects upto the water bottle on the right side of the engine also a third part that runs from near where it connects to the block and runs to the bulk head and connects to the heater matrix if anyone has this pipe and would like to sell pm !!! please or if someone has this but its not for sale could you do me a favor (odd request) could you messure the entire pipe including from block to the 2 part where it branches off and angle of bends or the branching off section right to the bulk head and to the water bottle.. (angles of branching off would help ie is it 45 degree's or 25, 90) might have to have it made hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickyfin32 Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 thats everything i need right there !!! i got fuel filter but where is your accumalator located? http://i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/Michael_Van_Birgelen/Image0169mm.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest El87cabi Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I'll have to double check as atm i don't have a complete running cabi to go on but i don't think i have 1, metal fuel line under car goes to preformed pipe that goes to fuel filter, will look in the SE's engine bay to make sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickyfin32 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 ok not sure now the fuel filter is going where the accumalator is but not sure what to do with the accumalator,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest El87cabi Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I don't think u have 1 on efi. In my car i have 2 metal pipes that come from the fuel tank then end on the frt of the bulkhead? I then have a rubber/material pipe going to my fuel pressure regulator from 1 of them, the other pipe has a preformed plastic fuel pipe going straight to my fuel filter. Please double check with ginger, or lee81, as they seen to know a damn sight more on cabi's than me but i'm pretty sure the accumalator will need to come out. If it does you'll need the pipe's i just mentioned, i'm assuming the fuel filter cage is the same, i know for defo the filter is. Btw, did you get the 2 rubber grommets with your airfilter box you put in the dr side inner wing to locat the 2 pegs on the side of your airbox?

mickyfin32 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 ever get the feeling sometimes your in over your head im getting this feeling not sure i have the 2 rubbers grommets,,, and pipes might have to be changed maybe this is why the engine has been struggling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest El87cabi Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Get that feeling all the time mate, it's a shame you don't have a working efi living near you then you could simply put them side by side and play spot the difference, you'd probably get it sussed in a morning, good thing i've not posted the fan yet, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickyfin32 Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 yeh i think i just need the fan pipes for now not sure about the accum yet hmm do you have the spare fuel pipes bit for in the engine bay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dazzersrst Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 the accumulator should sit up by the petrol tank on a efi and on a mfi in the engine bay you do need one as it stops the build up fuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
