Something I forgot to mention in our previous discussions...
I'm remembering that in those earlier models there is a small strainer in the fuel line, in one of the banjo fittings I believe.
This filter has been know to get blocked, which restricts the fuel flow getting to the injector pump...
I have done this numerous times in the past, as it is normally the simplest option.
Be mindful that most Tee pieces are made of brass, which is potentially problematic in a high vibration situation when there is a bit of weight on it (ie... the sender unit)
The male threaded section, that goes...
Yes, but as mentioned, it would seem that one of those bed spaces is not ideally sized for sleeping comfortably.
Personally, I am big on the concept of a permanent bed in a vehicle you plan on living in, be that a fixed bed or one that utilizes a lifting mechanism. The idea of having to make a...
I figure that you would have to be young and have no mobility or disability issues in order to utilize that space for sleeping. For me, I would think that 900mm would be the minimum height I could work with.
That setup would definitely not be an option for me or my wife, that's for sure, but...
Being a drain, the fitting would not need to withstand much pressure.
If it were me, I would just machine up a thin walled stainless hosetail with a parallel end (not threaded) and simply Loctite it into the block.
This would be the best method for not reducing flow too much.
Are those 2 bosses on the right hand side of the manifold solid?
If so, they seem to be an ideal location for an EGT probe.
On my truck there is a similar boss on the dump pipe (post turbo), which is what many people seem to use.
At this point I believe that pretty much everyone knows your views on how every company building composite bodies has got it wrong, and that only you know how to do it right.
My experience, after building things for over 50 years, is that a lot of time and money can be wasted over engineering...
I have a 110 litre "jerry can" on my truck. :)
My setup also includes a self designed/built fuel transfer system, to ensure you're not trying to pump fuel into an already full primary tank.
