So today was first good day of weather for ages, and mrs is now on holiday for a week, so made most of the day.
20 mins after starting, I wished I hadn't of started, 3 hours later it was done.
Got car high enough to start with
45 mins of various methods I got this bolt out
picture of old filler pipe

old vs new
new
Putting all pipes back on, and then I see this, inside the breather of tank, this could of been why my car broke (new thread going up now)
****ed around with a needle and eventually got it out
done

It was. Nobody across Google seemed to mention themselves doing it, or how.
Its pretty staright forward, just very very dirty job, and laying on back in the road working above your face means shoit in eyes constantly.

Car goes tomorrow and it wasn't moveable due to no tie bars fitted. Bushes still hadn't even been sent! So cancelled order and went on 2.5 hour round trip to rally design. By time I got back it was dark.
Got one fitted, going to have to get up early to do other side. PITA to fit bushes then work on pavement in pitch black.
