i did two thing to fit it:

1.chopped a bit of the plastic pipe off the fuel sock ( to fit the hose to it & to make the whole assembly shorter)

2. Cut the metal main fuel line to make the pump fit properly inside the tank (as it was too long with everything fitted up and hence would no go in properly.

Everything looks fine, the only concern i have is that the fuel sock is being crushed by being forced in there (coz the pump assembly is too long - hence kind of crushing it or causing a block, by being kind of crushed to the bottom...

It makes a different noise to the 040... much more quieter - although when its running it makes a hissing sound.... sounds almost like a air leak - I dunno if this sound is normal?

Could a blocked fuel filter or fuel pressure reg be another prob?
I remeber lane giving the FPR a bit of a hammer (first tune) to try and raise the fuel pressure to the injectors.. dont think he managed though...
