Is same bulb as the ashtray so i swapped them around.

Drilled few holes in the bottom chamber of the lift pump to help get fuel through to the FIP and reinstalled. No way duct tape will hold down the hatch I cut but the seat will.
Battery is 100% and back on. Starts fine hardly any smoke on startup. Test drive before long.
Deciding wether to Kev12 my headlining or strip starter motor tomorrow

You do realise that the plastic chamber under the lift pump acts as a reservoir so when the level in the tank is low and the fuel moves about there is always some for the pump to pick up. Drilling holes in the bottom rather defeats the object.

No. Maybe now.

Thought perhaps it will allow fuel into the chamber at a lower level maybe help on hills.
We will see :)
Likely I will try a cheapy pump before long.

Look at next door they have enough dandelions to claim subsidies!

It doesn’t take long Kermit, afternoon set aside. Is two person job ideally but a bit acrobatics can get it back in on your own carefully. Need to scrub all the handles etc now they look very grubby.
Oh and it’s orange :rolleyes::cool:
