Fuel lines part 1

Including under what I generically call "plumbing", now brake lines have been fixed into position next part of the plumbing is to run the fuel line down the transmission tunnel front to rear and connect to the Swirl Pot.

The fuel lines are simple enough to install and basically run alongside the brake lines fixed into position with cable ties. There is plenty of fuel line provided so balance out front to rear and fix into position either side of the P-clips holding the brake line to the chassis frame.

Where it does get tight is around the rear seat panel / differential / handbrake cable area where plastic protective conduit is needed to shield the pipes from the obvious movement of parts. 

When the drivers side transmission tunnel is fixed into position the conduit will be fixed to the panel via plastic saddle, cable tie riveted to the panel.

The front lines connect to the Swirl Pot whilst the rear plumbs into the fuel pump and fuel tank.
