33 Coupe Fuel System 19        1/02/04

Here is what the isolator and bracket look like mounted. Now your probably wondering why the bracket is mounted upside-down. The next picture below explains why.
 

 

 

Notice the nut just under the purple wiring loom. On the other side of this piece of wood is 3" X 3" steel plate which was bonded to the firewall some time ago. If I mounted the bracket right-side up, one of the two holes would have to be drilled through this plate and I didn't want to do that so this is why the bracket is mounted the other way. Notice the two nuts that are down below the previous one talked about. These are the two mounting bolts that currently hold the bracket in place so you can see if I mounted it the opposite way, the problem that I was avoiding. I also have a new location for the ground wires. I had to move them over to the right about 1 1/ 2 inches and then rewire it all because the wires were on the other side of the terminal strip.
  

 

 

This is what it looks like all finished. I used #4 steel braided line to connect the isolator to the fuel regulator along with one straight swivel and one 90 degree swivel fitting. At this point, the fuel system is finished. I guess its time to see if I have a sprinkler system or a leak-free bunch of fittings.
