Re: Eber B2L fuel pump

i run my petrol eber on a deisel pump had no problem
it doesnt run quiet as warm as it should do as i think it allows less fuel through
thats probably due to diesel burns slower

Re: stearing column splines

i think you will fin d its boss adapter on there
you will need a small pulling tool to take it off or a small blunt chisel and hammer
be careful not to damage the splines on the steering shaft

all the best Tony
