Fuel Inertia Switch ... Fitted / Removed / Fitted Again!

Friday 4th December - Work time = 2 hrs ... Build Time To Date = 59 hrs
Just to set the scene ... it seems a common practice to fit things ... flick a few pages forward in the manual ... and then find you need to remove it again to fit something else. 
I fitted the inertia switch one evening this week.  A fairly simple task ... a couple of holes in the bracket behind the diff.   As always I stood back to admire the work.



It was then just a case of tidying up the wires once the fuel pump was installed.  However a couple of days later I read forward in the manual and the build photos showed the inertia switch on the other side!  Off with the switch and back on again, this time on the correct side.  The change meant I also needed to reroute the wiring loom to the front side of the chassis rail ... removal of more cables ties!






I then spent the rest of the time sorting out the various bits and pieces ready to fit the fuel tank, fuel pump and fuel filter.  A job for the weekend !
