By 10mm bolts for attaching the tank, I hope you mean 10mm diameter and not 10mm hex size. Having that tank hit you in the back of the head in an accident could be interesting.

Thats correct 10mm thread
You dont think I was that daft

The coolant connections for the vaporiser need to be connected into the cars heater pipework. Find the two pipes that lead from the engine bay to inside the car, cut them and put T pieces in. Connect hoses to the T pieces and run those to your vaporiser.
As you can see in the photos is the pipes leading to that
Not the best of places to work as I'm working under the car
I cant tell which one is in and which one is out
Dose it matter which way round they are plumbed to the vaporizer
They look to me to be 1/2" bore but I'm not sure; I need to know coz when I cut the hoses and insert my T piece if its the wrong size then I'm with out my car until I order the right size
It looks like 1/2" bore but that is just guessing and could be 5/8 or even 3/4 bore
What kind of pressure and temperature goes through these pipes just so I know what kind of hose to order?

It is important to set it with the valve the right way up and at the correct angle.
I guess having it that far back will just sink the rear of the cars shockers when tank is full
Maybe i should put in on the axle

yes, the other place you were oing to mount them is 6 inches from the petrol injectors
Gilbertd wrote:
The manifold needs drilling as close to the petrol injectors as you can get so your first option is much too far away.
Well the second place I marked above is the same as marked in red in the photos below
The yellow circles are where the inlet fuel pipe enters and the bypass return leaves
We cant see each injector so to get even closer to them should I remove the fuel rail and start thinking about drilling there or should I just stick to the air inlet manifold marked in red?

The Map/PI sensor needs connecting to vacuum from the inlet manifold. I thought you had an installation manual? That will tell you.
Are you mean where the red crosses are
Forgot about that manual must dig it out from my computer somewhere

The picture entitled "The gas hose runs down ..." is a bit scary, but we need to wait and see what the orange hose is about.
