thanks for the offers peeps
its a 4x4 cossie regulator that fits in the rail that i need
and i got 1,
am just gunna fit it now. 10.30pm :scared:
i hope you all appreciate this lol


and my clutch slave is playing up, for some reason it doesnt release properly so after 20 mins of driving the clutch slips and i have to let the pressure out of the slave, then its fine again, for a while.

well it werent easy but its on, enough for tomorow anyway

the old reg had threaded -6 aeroquip fittings, new 1 is std with normal push on jubilee clip fittings

old braided hose wasnt long enough,
did have any mre so i had to swap the flow and return hoses on the baulkhead fittings behind my handbrake

but its on and working for now,

just about to go on a test drive.

well the test drive didnt go well

when the car starts to make boost the fuel pressure drops
must be a dodgy reg :(
at 1 bar boost it chould be 4.5 bar fuel pressure but it drops to 2
im not risking it so am stayin at home tomorow. wont be out till i get a brand new reg from somewhere.

you cant say i didnt try
have fun peeps :cry::cry:

now got plenty of fuel pressure so ive upped the boost
i also fixed 2 air leaks,
