Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!

Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!

I know I am, but where does the clip go

Looks like the fuel pressure regulator retaining clip.

I know I am, but where does the clip go

"If" I recall correctly? All 4 screw in and do not have the Push in Pipes ?


I am beginning to wonder if it was Something you dropped from a previous project ??

The only clip I recall that shape is the FPR clip but you haven't really given us a guide to size

But clips into the plastic housing just above part 5

Home run now Santa,keep positive

The fuel pressure regulator may want a bit of silicone grease around it to make sure it is seated fully so that the clip will easily fit. If it is non OEM prepare for a fight.
I fitted a Quantum fuel pressure regulator at one time that was so tight I had to use a clamp to fit it, removed it shortly afterwards and contacted Quantum !!!no reply from them.

What a job !!!!!!!!
Top tip folks if you’re not touching the filter leave the clip alone
The only way I could do was with the C Clamp
Anyway clips in now, so moving on

 

[Santa-2512]

Come on get a move on son,

My free internet expires in Dec and i want to get it over with by then

 

[Baza 07]

Gonna fire the bugga up tomorrow, oh and then we’ve got the brakes to bleed, that’s another job I’ve never done
Should I bleed the brakes before starting it up,or doesn’t it matter
Cheers Baza

might be worth investing in a haynes manual or a reprom cd

Got the Haynes mate,it’s the confidence to go for without asking first

 

[Baza 07]

Evening folks hope we're all ok,,,,progress has been painfully slow,but i've been a touch busy,
anyway i'm going to try and bleed the brakes in the next couple of days,but a quick Q,
i'm going to do the job using a "Gunson Eezibleed"so now its got a empty ABS Unit how
do i prime it,or when i connect the Eezibleed does that do the job for me,lastly if anyone's
used the Eezibleed is there anything to look out for,,,Cheers Baza

 

[Baza 07]

Hi all,i manage to bleed the back brake today but the cap on the
Eezibleed wont fit the front brake reservoir,anyone know of a quick fix
IE,,, a cap that would do the job,
Cheers Baza

 

[Mistacat]

I have an Eezibleed but would not bother using it on a GS , It is so easy to do without, as you can reach the lever & pedal and the bleed nipple yourself.
