That injector from William was perfect. I'd highly recommend him. Thanks for that @Jon Dor. Thanks to everyone else for their input too. I was perfectly happy living in Leeds but now feel the urge to move to France :)

Now I've got to troubleshoot what looks like a leak from the injector pump in the engine bay and intermittent EAS problems (like just about every other P38 on the road no doubt :))

Anyone recommend a guide anywhere about removing the pump? Or a recommendation for a suitable in-line pressure gauge? Not sure what I'm looking for - are they all a standard fitting that will work with all parts of the EAS airlines?

What is the problem with your EAS? Best Start a new thread.;):D
 
No need to fit a pressure gauge, just more places to leak. Pump pressure can be checked with a thumb over the outlet pipe and you get confirmation when the beast rises.
After overhaul, the EAS on mine has been reliable.

The seals go on the injection pump. Can be replaced using a kit off ebay for under £20. A search on here should show up a how to by someone. Might have been @biketeacherdave .

Some seals are replaceable while the pump is in situ, with a bit of faffing.
If it has to come off you need a tool to hold the sprocket in place before removing.
If pump top has to be removed will be practicing ball in cup a lot :D
Most here have experience of this so plenty of help and guides available

William's a great lad to deal with. Glad he sorted you out OK!
