The ones I recommend have a 7mm inside diameter with a cross section of 3.5mm, which means the outside diameter is 14mm.

But everyone needs to consider this.

Sh*t, b*gg*r, b*st*rd, p*ss, f*ck, f*rt !
I was attempting to remove the plug leads and No 8 has pulled off leaving the Plug Cap in place
Does anyone know if there is a 'special tool' for removing errant plug caps ?
Many thanks,
PJ

....Would be worth looking at the oil pressure sensor underneath whilst it's out ....
Now that the coils are out, the next problem (?) I have is which of these (A) or (B) is the Oil pressure sensor. I am assuming it is B. If it is, what on Earth is (A) ?Ta !

If you change the oil pressure switch you must be very careful not to over-tighten the replacement.
Make sure the switch comes with a new copper washer, check the torque, and don't strip the thread!
If it's too lose the thing will leak, messy but not a disaster
If it's too tight and you strip the threads it will need a helicoil and an oil flush to remove the debris, you don't want that

Have already restarted the rebuild so she'll have to wait until next Christmas
(The whole fuel rail strip didn't turn out to be as bad as I had preconceived)
Damn ! Changed my mind and decided to fit new Oil Pressure bits but couldn't order them from TVR CP or RaceTech

Gentlemen,
The Firmament will be smiling a little more brightly tonight with your combined brilliance and the fact that one of its little stars will be out on the road again.
I truly thank you from the bottom of this old heart of mine (cue Rod) for your combined help during this harrowing time.
YeeeHaaa - a V8's Fuel rail rebuilt !
Beers are on me at CerbFest
