I need some ends welded on my fuel rail.

Does anyone know who can do this in the Berkshire area. My local engineers does ally welding but didnt want to attemt this.

Cheers

 

Is your rail alloy?

Can do you a billet rail that has threaded ends if you want to do it properly.

 

Price please

To fit eec4 inlet (looks to have 2wd and 4wd mounts but would rather use the 2wd) and threaded suitable for -6 adaptors.

Cheers,

WD

 

£135 plus vat & del

 

Bolt straight on i.e. no other mods other than fuel pipe fitting ?

In blingy blue or is that extra ?

Website or phone ?

Bolts straight on, blingy blue is inc in price. 0121 458 6010

 

what about in Black Martin?

 

Are these avail for a boggo escos rail? (ie, with the FPR in situ?)

 

Can get them re anodised if needed, would add about a tenner to the price.

No But I could sell you a reg too

 

Yea the rail is alloy and the ends are threaded but the thread is so coarse it leaks.

I bought some weld on -6 & -8 plugs just need them welded on...

 

Surely you'd add some PTFE to the threads as a matter of course?!?!? I couldnt see it leaking after that??

 

Could you not use a copper washer between the fitting and the rail or a dowty seal?? Welding it has to be a last resort.

 

Martin,
can you do just the brackets for these? I have a different rail already but the brackets that came with it are shite!!

 

you shouldnt use PTFE with petrol

 

if you do, you end up with tipex

 

Interesting - what should you use instead? (if anything - sure my defi instructions said to put teflon tape around the sensor for my Fuel pressure sensor to ensure there are no leaks??)

 

Ordered

 

I have had alloy fuel rails on my 500 for over 3 years , no leaks , no washers , no welding , Just buy quality fittings and quality fuel rails , not the cheap shit you see on fleebay

 

Sent

 

And received

Top service and a great product, thought it deserved a photoshoot :



Now I just need to pull my finger out and put the engine in and then bolt all the bling on

Interested in the comments on PTFE and fuel - I thought the top goodridge hoses lined with PTFE and that PTFE in general was good with petrochemicals ?

Cheers,

WD

 

Jesus!

Now thats bling!

 

wonder how long that bling will stay like that

not long trust me

nice parts tho matey

 

Trouble is Paul, you miss the point... It's not cheep-like-de-budgies . People quite happily buy shite off ebay purley because it is cheap , look at XS/ airtec etc ..

I have given up trying to tell people that if you buy cheap you pay 3 times more in the long run trying to sort it out

 

My friends have got me on suicide watch in case it rains

Seriously though – dry weather only car

WD

 

You're .

Car will never be finished at this rate .

Does look like you are going to town on it though - bit of an expensive "coffin" mind you .

 

I aim to please

It is taking a while though but I am having fun building so who cares

WD

PS : The Rainbird supplied brakes look cool to

 

Exactly Wil

when will people learn probs after there car has either broken down or at worst burst into flames

If my 500 had cheap rails and cheap fittings i would have been taking it home in a bag after croft and my little fire , buy quality and buy once

 

Yes and now with engraving

 

Mine look like that then

 

We think alike, my plain one is being done - but with my car details on it
