special glowplug connectors, as shown on the right,
are commercially available.
Silicone tubing
This is required for the connection between the fuel tank
and engine.
Plug wrench
Used for tightening glowplug. The O.S. long
plug wrench is available as an optional

Fuel level
Pay attention to tank height
Locate the fuel tank so that the top of the tank is 5-
10mm (1/4-3/8") above the level of the needle-valve.
Silencer (muffler) pressurized fuel system
To reduce variation in fuel "head" and ensure steady
fuel delivery at the carburettor, it is advisable to employ
a silencer (muffler) pressurized fuel system, i.e. to use
the silencer outlet nipple to pressurize the fuel tank as
shown left.
