Hi guys not as drastic as it sounds but Im hopefully going to attempt the FPR install tomorrow weather permitting. I just have 1 or 2 concerns:
1) When I remove the stock FPR I am assuming that a small amount of fuel is going to drip out and down onto the engine. Question is how long is safe to leave it before starting the engine?
a) How long to wait before setting correct pressure
b) I have a 140 mile tomorrow evening and dont fancy the temperature getting too hot and something igniting the fuel residue whilst driving.
2) How long after turning engine off after 80 mile spirited drive should I wait before removing the stock FPR risking fuel dripping onto hot engine? Reason I ask is that I am going to do the prep work tonight whilst its light i.e mounting the new FPR and attaching associated hosing ready to swap over in the morning. If its safe to do so I could fit the fuel rail adapter etc tonight and just set it up in the morning.
I appreciate the questions may seem 'bone' to others but this is the fuel system we are talking about so just want to be 100% sure that I will be safe to drive afterwards.
EDIT: Obviously I will try my hardest to not get any fuel spillage by using rags etc but will probably not get it all.
