Fuel rail fitting?

[phazed]

I have moddified a Land Rover fuel rail for use on my chim.

I need to get a fitting to screw into this existing one.

I should have taken it to a shop before fitting it but forgot.

Does anyone know the size and thread, I'm guessing it's imperial.

Peter, is this what you require or at least half of it.

Looking good ! Are those cables grounds ? and if so why are the grounded in so many locations ..

Daz, I have a whole new loom and those are new connections.

There is a main multiple earth on the rear of the nearside head + another smaller bunch that can go on the fuel rail leg bolt.

Daz it is possible, a swivel ratchet spanner is your pal.

Did you reduce the size some how because the thread size is to big for the ring connectors..

which grounds went where ?

Thanks for that!

I'll phone tomorrow.

Actually, Power have been very helpful in the past and their prices are often cheaper then others!

Fingers crossed...........

Just ordered the part from Power and they are sending it FOC!

I suppose I'll have to buy a turbo now .

Did you tell them it was the later LR that runs the other way round (circulates counter clockwise), I'm not sure if the fittings are the same (metric crept in slowly bit by bit rather than all or nothing at solihull).

Daz its a UNC 3/8 to 5/16 waisted stud from memory this may explain why your struggling getting a 3/8 bolt through your 8mm ring terminals possibly

Spend. I take your point and will check.

Which way should the fuel circulate, does it mater?

Daz just ask someone on here if they have a spare failing that ask someone that break's/salvage LR's or RR's on Ebay shouldn't cost more than a couple of quid
