just a heads up for those running uprated fuel pump with standard fuel regulator.if u havnt got a fuel pressure gge it might come in handy as for 6mths fuel pressure on idle was 3.2-3.4 bar max but standard regulator seems to get a bit knackered when running about 4.8-4.9 bar fuel pressure as mine is now 3.5-3.6 bar on idle.have asked around and mine isnt the first one to suffer this prob.will def be fitting uprated regulator as soon as poss.from what i am told this is also a bit of a pig to do...figures nothing easy on a scoob

It's not that difficult to do but is a little fiddly and I recommend you not do it in freezing conditions as when you scrape you hand on the engine, it will REALLY!!! hurt

John,

You have been assimilated though

At the time, I was (by my standards) up North at the time (though probably not by your standards John)
