====== General Plumbing ======

===== Brake & Clutch =====

No major biggies - all the various pipes have been tidied up, I've become slightly obsessed with the DIY split nylon cable clamp for neatness:

Although the old cable tie lacing trick works lovely where other methods aren't practical:

===== Fuel Pipes =====

Are a bit of a mess but not being faffed with this time round - long-term I'll fit an in-tank pump and do away with all this stuff, but that likely requires fabricating a new fuel tank.

If you're curious - Facet lift pump, Land Rover sedimentor/swirl pot, Bosch EFI pump plus filter. Fuel rail return tees into swirl pot return to give a little back-pressure, return line passes through a filter before returning to tank.

===== Breathers =====

I've tidied them all up - here's the back axle & fuel tank breathers, moped fuel filters to keep dirt out:

Yes, the fuel tank one does have a rollover valve in it.

===== Oil Pressure Switch =====

P38 oil pressure switch (NUC100280L) which has a junior timer connector and allows use of sealed Bosch EV1 connectors (the same used on the fuel injectors & other sensors), this means the oil light is not going to come on when wading in deep water.
