I got these from Camskill for £54 a piece and that was with the vat already on and £2.45 per tyre for delivery but then again iam still on my 13 white refurbed stock alloys so if i was to go up on my wheel size then you start going into big money

2 gallons should give me 2 15 minute outings maybe ? lol but for all it takes to empty some fuel into it every other outing its not big deal as i always take my large fuel can filled up with me and its less weight to carry about

[halfpint]

good idea batman.

Well the finishers arrived today so all i need now is the Braided fuel line



Cheers Scuderia

[fullpint]

16 clips to do up  Get that re-chargeable screw-driver out I say

[Scuderia]

I don't need that many thank god ,it was a 20 pack and it worked out as cheap to buy a pack than it was to buy them singlely,

well the hose arrived yesterday so as soon as i get time after doing this DIY , i should get to the car around or after the weekend and get the fuel system finished off,

Hi Guys and Girls,

Sorry i haven't been about but i had diy to do and then i got the Flu but i seen to have cot up on what i needed to to,well the fuel system is now finished and working although the fuel is running away from the throttle body back to the tank after the engine is switched off so i have ordered another none return valve to fit the to fule pipe just after the tank to prevent this,iam sure it not under fueling as the pump is more than able to deal with the Cinquecento delivery but it might be over fueling and as soon as i get a chance i will get it back on the rolling road to see whats happening?but as i said it seems to be running OK,

Here are some pics after it was all fitted as well as a little short video,Enjoy!,





I also got the new outer anti roll bar bushes pushed on so that is now all the bushes  replaced so all i have now to do is get some new nylon nuts then i can start tightening them all up apart from the trailing arms as i can't do them until i get the weight back on them then i can get the paws back on after getting the new tyres fitted,i also got some more stickers come on  you should know me by now lol,






I also got the rocker cover back on after polishing it and you will see in the other pic that i also added another in-line fuel filter just in case just before the throttle body,

Not sure if you have noticed or not but i have not used the braided fuel line as it was to hard to work with and the route it need or wanted to take was a joke so i never used it in the end,
