Well done Ash.

Did you have to do anything with the fuel pipes/filter in the end.

or was it just a matter of connecting the fuel pump and return??

Man, you are really moving along on that build. Wish I'd been able to contact you last year when I was at Detling. Spent 10 days in C'bury - with a car.
