R1 fuel send and return lines
bassett - 4/3/08 at 07:57 PM

Hi, can anyone help with where the R1 (02-03) fuel send and return pipes are routed, a picture would be greatly appreciated. Reason is that the engine wont be in for a while and id like to secure them down as they are constantly in the way hanging loosely in the engine bay.
Cheers for any help

Here's a pic of mine.
I routed them either side of the gear change lever. Rescued attachment P1000420.JPG

Thanks for the picture Stuart. Just to clarify am i looking at the pipes just above the cradle at the bottom and the one in the middle. If so which ones which?

The copper pipe you can see in front of the gear change is flow and the one you can just see near the cradle behind the gear lever is the return.

No problem Adam. I'm trying to keep everything to a minimum in the engine bay, hiding all the ugly bits were they can't be seen.

Both lines are through heat proof tube. Return is the one on the left. Sorry you cant see where the feed fits to but its the clearest picture of it i could find.

cheers adrian. One other thing where was the last point that you held the pipe down to the chassis?

The last clip is just as it emerges from the tunnel.
