Re: Where have you mounted your filter King?
It will need to go after the fuel pump so where I your pump mounted?
Is it the glass bowl version or metal? If it the glass bowl it's not a good idea to put it under the van.
Remember the gauge is for setting up only and a bit of ptfe tape on the port plug will help seal it when your done.
Look at where there is space to mount it then decide if there is a good path for you fuel lines to and from it, if not pick somewhere else.

It's the metal version. A lot of guys with bays put them in the engine bay.....what do you think?
My pump is just after the tank outlet

Don't see a problem with mounting in the engine bay, it's where I have mounted them in the past on other cars I have fitted them to.

Don't worry it not cheap plastic that's likely to melt when I gets warm.
