Rapid response! Thanks

Does it bolt onto the circle which is on the fuel rail? as i have a hole which looks like it leads to a filter?

There should be two threads sticking out the front of the lower inlet, just above the fuel rail. The guard slides over and two nuts hold it on...

This is the hole im concerned about.

Thanks

Ignore that, its usually where the regulator sits (on a Ph1 engine, you can probably see the silver regulator in my picture). On a 172 Ph2/182 it isn't used as there is only a single feed to the fuel rail, there is no return to the pump.

Thanks for the help mate, you have put my mind at rest.

It's not really needed to be honest, unless you plan on driving into something! It's just to protect the fuel rail in a crash. It does polish up nice though!
