  5. Not much progress today but my Pingel weld-in M22 boss came in the post while I was out doing motorcycling :motorcycleduc::fist:
    Worked out where it needs to go and then marked out the filler cap centres.

  6. You will want to line up the filler necks so the fuel cap finger idents line up before welding in, otherwise, you will spend the next 20 years wishing you had (and Roborano will never, ever let you forget)

  7. Nope, they bolt in but they are staying like that just to wind him up o_O

    Actually the bolts are aligned properly, the filler caps stop slightly out - if I line the caps up the bolts look odd - I must try some other caps to see if they stop at the same angle - I have 4 units :thinkingface:

  9. Ordered a fuel pressure release valve from Demon Tweeks, always good service and it arrived this morning.
    Expensive compared with some Ebay offerings but a quality piece of kit.

    But oh dear, in the catalogue it was anodised silver and when it arrived it was in 1990's horrendous Red :mad:

    That's the only colour they come in now is the response from a phone call - so I can't swap it for the proper version and have to wet and dry the anodising off ffs! :rolleyes:

  16. Up to you but before sanding off the current anodising might be worth checking with Mocal directly to see if they are available in silver either directly or from another supplier if I were you, rather than take Demon Tweeks customer support spouting as gospel.

    I found Demon Tweeks after sales service to be somewhat lacking.....

  18. For some reason I have gone and reread the thread from the beginning, its surprising how many of the members who commented at the beginning have disappeared over the years......
