Default MK2 fuel changeover switch

Years ago when I restored my carrier, I was missing the fuel tank changeover switch. So I adapted a modern one. A couple of years ago I bought a NOS switch from Dirk Leegwater. Just recently I had a starter motor problem which meant removing some engine bay panels and standing on my head. Whilst I was in that situation I thought it was worthwhile fitting my NOS switch. All has worked successfully. All though my advancing years and motorcycle wounds made the whole operation tedious and uncomfortable.....But I'm glad it's done. One day I'll find the correct air filter to replace my Landrover item.....Then I'll have to get in there again Ron

Hi Ron

Where abouts did you get the braided fuel lines?

Hi Jordan.
The fuel lines were made up by a local firm here in UK. Surprisingly they are called "Thread and Pipe"
