The area for the tank. All ready to pop it in I did get the tank in. The. Had to take it out to get the straps in. Then it didn't want to go back in. After loads of juggling it was very annoying. Arms aching jack was a pain to get in place, needed to balance wood. Hopefully never need to do...

Wanted to fire it up with the tank on the floor after changing the pump. Didn't want to get the tank in and discover some issue. I brought new rubber pipes and got 1m long. This also ment I could run the tank on the floor to reach the pipes on the bosy. Well happy with that. Next if a bit of...

Nice it passed. Another year of trouble free motoring. It's seems to be all the other cars you need to fix, Audi, Duster and Mustang.

Old fuel pump. No rubber pipe on top. Possible it's just corroded away. new pump. Pump fitted. New rubber pipe.

Done some painting over the weekend. Also some heatshield bits too

Looks good. Would have gone, after a full day at the Capel show it would have been a long day. Perhaps next time.

More goodies have arrived. All rubber pipes I need also are here. Fuel pump filter sock coming tomorrow.

Welcome to Solent Renegades Car Club, @ConnorKelly.

Nipped out for an hour to removed the tank straps and get the tank out, with a bit of wiggling it is now out. Found a temporary place for the exhaust.

Yeah they are good clamps. Used them on the air intake on the 4th gen. I got a few sizes at the time, so these are spare. That u-bolts I ordered are just for exhaust hangers. Looks like the rest of the exhaust I can rejoin with 2 new bolts.

Fuel pipe ordered, 6mm, 8mm and 10mm. Measured my pipes with calipers, to verify before buying. Only need around 20cm of each to bride that gap between the metal pipes. Its how it was done standard, so I'm keeping it that way. The rubber pipes advertise E10 safe. Also ordered some u-joints...

Pipes disconnected. Ready to remove the tank. Only 2 bolts holding the straps, turn wiggle and it will be out. Other brake caliper off. It's freer than it was, a bit more to be like the other side.

Treatment stuff has arrived. The silver is for the exhaust. I do have por15 paint, I'll use that for that axle and any parts I have taken off. The spray paint is to paint above me, like the underside of the car.
