Hi all . as i have no direct comparison to a car now can someone tell me where the return petrol pipe connects to to the tank. It may be on one side only but is it on the top of the tank so the petrol just drops in, or is it on the bottom of the tank so there is no air return when system is depressurized after standing. If you can understand. What type of connection is it, swaged or plain. ...............ta like UG

Just changed my fuel pipes to and from the engine bay and the return pipe runs across the car from the drivers side sill to the top of the tank on the passenger/near side.

My return was swaged copper pipe..Which seems odd for low pressure?..I thought it was the feed and the FPR was on the wrong way but its right...I think...laugh

This is correct.
