- it was a Bosch Fuel Pressure Switch - Part Number 0 344 101 055 which cost around £7-8 + shipping several years ago. At the time Mike Parkin kindly arranged for a batch to be purchased from Germany so we could share the shipping costs.
Installation is easy:
You need to purchase a barbed adaptor suitable for the fuel line I.D. feeding the carburettors (I bought a plated brass one from my local pneumatic equipment supplier) which allows you to connect it into the fuel line, at or near the return tee, via an additional tee piece. You then need to fabricate a suitable bracket to attach it to the firewall. There may be more elegant ways to make the connection but this works well in my installation.
Hope this helps

Thanks Roger, I’m just having trouble sourcing the bits right now but, hopefully, I will get there in the end.

For those of us who perhaps did not plan ahead as well as we should have,there is a neat little self contained digital vibration hour meter available for about $40 US.
Same sizing as the standard Hobbs meter.
Works well, the down side is that the internal battery is only good for about 7 years.
