That was a constant feed to pump ols, its weird it did have fuel at the rail. Perhaps connection somewhere isn't good enough to run it. Either way will finish that tomorrow.

Glad it runs though lol

Might be worth checking/replacing the fuel pump relay. Either that or your connection to the fuel pump wiring in the footwell.

Fuel pump wiring is just the one wire isn't it? Thick red/blue

The old gsi engine/loom had a live feed from the pump the live in footwell so need figure that out

just need to get a new rocker cover or tidy this one, and then set about tidying up a few other bits.

Im sure on my old let I never ran this much vacuum hose though :S

can anyone shed some light?

edit - last time i think I had the penny valve?(outlet off the turbo) blanked off and no vacuum going to it?

Make sure it's sanded back and cleaned otherwise the paint reacts like a bitch

What paint are you planning on using? I used rattle cans when I did mine and it's held up pretty well so far but I'll be doing it again before show season to get rid of some bubbling that I painted over

Same, he's replied being a bit defensive saying they fit a B and are safe but not how they mount!

Yeah I noticed it was close to you, would save you the hassle if you bought it

The reply I got from him was:

It can be done and has safely as well. It mainly the shocks that are different as for the brake pipes they will fit as well Altho I did put new on when I fitted it just because it cost next to nothing. This beam will fit a Corsa B!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've asked if he's using corsa C shocks to mount it on the B
