    Fuel on inlet gasket (photos included)

    I noticed there's a slight amount of what seems to be fuel on my gasket for the inlet manifold, is this normal? It doesn't look to have been leaking at all, just a little bit sat there and also underneath the gasket.

    Help needed with arrows on top of fuel tank lid

    I know this sounds obvious but could someone who knows for definite please confirm that the green arrow pointing out from the tank is the fuel feed and the red arrow pointing back into the tank is the fuel return. There isn't some strange French engineering reason why it would be the opposite...

    Temp and Fuel gauge dash light gone/out?

    As per picture and title, the light for my fuel and temp dials has gone out, is this likely to be a wiring issue/lose connection? I'm fairly certain it's not the bulb because when I turned the car on earlier the light did come on but went off after about 2 seconds. ​Any help appreciated.

    Ph1 172 -> mk1 conversion 1 fuel line!??!?!?!

    Hey guys, in the process of converting my valver to f4r and noticed the 172 only has 1 fuel line (green connector) and then it has a line that goes to a black box (inside the drivers wing under the headlight) What do I use for fuel return. I was under the impression that ph1 172's had a feed...

    Changing the feed fuel line to the fuel rail.

    Anyone done it, easy job? I've not looked that closely at it yet, but not sure how far back, or the route the line takes from the rail. or, can up just change over the connection where it connects to the rail itself? Cheers.

    MK1 fuel gauge, rev counter, temp not working

    As title, was driving home on the motorway and suddenly all the above gauges stopped working. Rev counter is fine, and the above gauges all light up still. Fuse? Relay? I have no idea. Thanks Chaps.

    15mpg and oil smells of fuel?

    I did a track day yesterday an averaged 15mpg (which seems low to me even on track) and the oil is thin and smells like it has fuel in it. Is this normal after a track day or is something a miss? The previous owner claimed it had been cam'd but nothing to me suggests that it has.

    Is there any reason you felt the need to drive off the forecourt at 2mph revving your engine? Sounds nice, but you are a tool.
