just took ages cutting my 2wd fuel pipe from thefeul rail to the metal pipe from under the car (pipe had already been cut by previous owner half way down and fitted normal pipe!)as i am switching my 2wd inlet plenum over to a 4x4 one!got the job lot plenum,fuel rail,regulator and o.e fuel pipes!but how ever the 4x4 pipes from the rail are not wide enough to fit over my metal pipes from under the car now i am stuck!the only option i can think off is cutting the o.e pipes from the fuel rail,fitted normal fuel pipe!and driving ot very slowly up to either karl or tony to get it set up and the map adjusted and get him to fit aeroquip pipes?

 

why cant you fit the quip lines yourself?

a roll of -6 and some fittings job done

 

what connectors to they use tho?as jubilee clips are no good !those fuel pipes where a bastard to get off!ended up taking the hack saw to them

Do you know if the o.e 2wd pipes will fit on to a 4x4 fuel rail/regulator?if i can get hold of a set?

 

I need all mine doing as well.

Steve

 

no idea if they fit..

you can get aeroquip fittings which are based on a jubilee clip, but its a pikey way of doing it tbh....

it isnt hard to do mate, you can get fittings which fit the fuel filter, run the hose up the the rail, which will need an- fittings braized onto it.

or you can go all out like i did, and get a billet fuel rail with aeroquip fittings, and an aeroquip fitment fuel reg, then run aeroquip lines up and back, using all aeroquip lines and fittings on the fuel pump, filter etc

 

I see cheers for the input jtechsaff!ah crap!why do these simple jobs always turn out to be pants!!!!!!thought my 4x4 lines would simply click on to the metal pipes!but do they bollocks lol!!!!!!

 

im about to quip my car,,, fucking HATE being someone with "quip" but on the fuel system its gonna be needed,,,, not so sure if anyone needs quip breather hoses though

 

The pipe work is easy Doug but you will get a bit stuck @ the reg end... I have seen a fitting welded on the oe reg before and i was going to do this but ended up buying a Aeromotive fuel reg http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3AIT&viewitem=

 

aeroquip is ideal hose for breathers as it doesnt discolour or mis-shape like normal hose.

 

You can do mine then Doug

Steve.

 

its easy stevie boy

 

Not a problem Steve mate

 

i chose to run -8 up to the rail,
-6 return
and -10 from tank-pump

i also used the reg doug did,

 

Get on MSN that man

Steve.

 

Ah crap i feel my wallet getting lighter then i had hoped !i should of stayed with my 2wd plenum

 

you can use the 2wd rail and reg on the 4x4 plenum......just have one of the mounts chopped and moved over

 

yer and you have to get abracket welded on for the regulator i seem to remember?might as well fit my 4x4 rail now i have got it

 

I still use a 2wd reg on 4x4 plenum just made a spacer and bracket

I will dig out a pic tomorrow

Paul

 

Mine has a 4wd rail and reg on a 2wd plenum. Fitted by previous owner.
