Recommended Posts

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

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

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?

Safe, el

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

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
