yep, just checked:

......"where a warning lamp is provided as the ONLY means of checking......."

it then says various things including that the warning lamp must have a test switch, i.e. the handbrake switch.





Retro RWD is the way forward...........automotive fabrication, car restoration, sheetmetal work, engine conversion retro car restoration and tuning

Well

i have the bottle almost done.

but what happend?My colleges at work saw my art and couldn't accept it.

In the end i took a bit of stainless and have turned up with a lathe at work the part using the fazer 600 neck as model.

because we don't have small pipework
(smaller as 10mm) i just grabbed a bunch of M8 screws and drilled thrue them.

a piece of 15mm pipe does the outlet and 2 M8x16mm bolts do the overpressue and the normal air bleed

anyway i didn't wanted to make it shiney when i started to post this thread also i just cutted the sheets with the tig welder and when reaching the border i just melded it on.. BUT as said the quality (read as bling effect) was to low!

Now i have a college at work wich redo's the hole job and gives it a shiney finish!

in this moment the acid is doing his job
tomorrow the thing will be polished.

total cost will depend on if i tell the bos about it i only said that i needed a piece of 104mm tube and his response was that i make sure that i take it off the stock.

anyway the pressure cap with neck from ebay will be the total costs of this thing.

allin allout it will be maybe the same costs as a plastic one, atleast this one has bling+its higher quality... and i don't need to take out the crap wich doesn't come off from the strange corners the prodcars bottles has..not??

Tks
