Hi David
Not really the hard bit was finding it I pressurised it a few times when it was cold and left overnight first time I had a couple of the hose clips letting by so changed them - second time had a joint on the entry into FBH ( mine is odd one of the few petrols with FBH ) so of course thought cracked it and of course I hadn't.
I happened to speak to an indi near me and he suggested the elbow and bingo took about an hour and a half to do as it is at the back but just a steady plod.
