Fuel System – Pressure Regulator Part 2

Fuel System – Pressure Regulator Part 2

Number of Hours:  4
Manual Reference:  no ref

In pics 1 and 2 you can see how it all fits in now. There is even room for the two black heater pipes. I have spent hours playing around with the hose outlets at the rear of the arm rest and sorting out where they will go in the hell hole area. No pics for once just time served.

Pic 2 shows that really busy area like I’m building more than just a fiberglass bathtub.

Pic 3 is my happy place where the on/off valve is located. You can also now see the two push/pull cable controls for the heat system. The trap door or incoming air valve also has a lock on it. So when you turn the knob it locks in place. If I want it shut, it will stay shut. The other knob controls the direction of the hot air, forward back or a mix. I have no idea what will wok best.

By the way I now have black screws for the On/Off fuel valve. I couldn’t get anything locally so they came from China with free postage and about 8 bucks for a bag of them.
