hi all.. how can i fit an ally screw on fitting for braided fuel lines onto the original fuel rail?? i had an old rail what i threw away that looked as if the screw on fitting had been welded or braised.. can this be a diy job for me if so what do i need or off to a garage...? cheers

 

it needs to be silver solderd m8 a few of the tuners on here do it but its not cheap

 

silver solder will crack, its too soft pal, you cannot weld an ally fitting to a steel rail.

the problem with the std rail is it has a small copper content that is used to seal the ends and the injector cups, this has to be removed before your STEEL fitting can be tigged on very nicely

 

ah i was wrong lol

 

too many people do it pal as well, looks to have taken but cracks off in a rough environment

 

Really, NOT what you want on a fuel rail, is a billet item recommended only then or does another cossie model have -6 fittings as std, ESCOS or ex rally car?
