As its all in a nice piece of plastic trunking, why not just tie wrap it to the fuel pipe every three or four inches, its well insulated. Cant see that would be any problem. ATB Ray.

If you tie it to the fuel pipe you're likely to fail SVA (with good reason).

Imagine if you had a short on the wiring and it overheated - right up against the fuel pipe!

You should keep wiring, fuel lines and brake pipes well clear of each other, as far as is practical.

To answer the original question - why not use tie-wraps to one of those screw-on tie-wrap mounts? Don't use sticky pads (not without a screw, anyway).

Same place as you got your p clips for brake lines would be my first port of call.

Hi

I got some large P clips from a local hydraulics shop, about a quid each

Failing that halfords sell tyrap bases that you can rivet to the chassis
