[QUOTE="Quade, post: 13203443, member: 90981"] I've already gotten the car back together and leak checked so I'll be trying to start it tomorrow. Lee has given me a couple different start up tunes to try out just so I can load it up and get it to him safely. OK, back to the install........ [ATTACH=full]477779[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]477780[/ATTACH] The stock fuel hat. FIRST thing, clean that thing off! Get the fuel line removed and get a hammer and brass punch to knock the green ring off. [ATTACH=full]477781[/ATTACH] Here is the 2010 Level in the new Hat. If you have a 07-09, you'll need the sender and it's an option for this kit. It snaps right into place. [ATTACH=full]477782[/ATTACH] Here is the new Hat installed in the tank. The OEM hat comes out fairly easy, BUUUUUT, the Division X WILL NOT go in that tank unless you do a cut in the front of the lip on the seat pan and bend up the metal about 3/4" around the front. You could do it if you dropped the tank out but the cut and bend didn't bother me to bad so I took that route. When the Hat-body seal is reinstalled, you can't see it anyway. It's really tight in there and the Hose routing has to be pretty much like this. I ended up using this fitting that was suppose to be for the return on the regulator back here. I ended up ordering a 90* fitting for the Regulator. [ATTACH=full]477783[/ATTACH] These are the only two wires that need to be spliced at the Hat and they are for the Fuel Level Sender. Non of the wire colors in the instructions matched the color of wires in the OEM harness so I broke the meter out and tested the only two small, Signal type wires in the plug wires. I Hooked the only one of the two wires that rang to ground to the ground wire on the hat and the other to the signal wire. Worked perfect. [ATTACH=full]477784[/ATTACH] This is the harness after it's spliced and taped up. [ATTACH=full]477785[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]477786[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]477787[/ATTACH] These are the lines coming down from the tank and moving fwd to the Regulator. All the way up the OEM fuel line mounts, I cut and trimmed the original line mount out and both the supply and return lines tucked up inside perfectly.
