cheekymonkey Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Hi All I now have my FCD, new plugs and pump to go in, so pretty much ready for BPU. Am confident enough about the plugs and FCD but working with fuel bits isn't something I've done before apart from on diesels which I believe is a bit safer then petrol. Going to follow http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=45647 How safe is it to use a soldering iron near the open fuel tank, if this is indeed required. Needless to say I'd be using an electric one not a gas one Or is a case of being able to disconnect something from the loom and soldering it totally away from the car? Haven't actually looked yet so not sure what to expect. Also any hints of what to insulate with if I can't use insulation tape, other safety tips? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheekymonkey Posted May 3, 2007 Author Share Posted May 3, 2007 Brilliant, thanks. Those pictures are excellent, I now know what to expect! Will talk to CW re the heatshrink, I have some already but probably not fuel resistant stuff. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I may have some left too (chilli sent me some) so I'll see if I can dig it out later (however I've got a busy couple of days coming up so if you don't hear back this evening then assume I haven't) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
