8.B.V.

Will you please fit and connect up the filler herewith on the above car to attached rough sketch.

The filler head should be fitted as high as the trap door will allow to allow the filling vent pipe to be as high as possible above the tank. Both vents require fitting up.

The petrol gauge in the tank does not work.

The servo must be relined with genuine VG.90.
