i belive i have got the nuts and bolts you require, are they real long ones, if you can get me a pic of one i will sort ya a few out, the pipe from the back to the fuel tank vent valve looks like it comes from the carbon canister under the drivers front wing so look for it around the bulkhead there, for some reason im thinking the other pipe on the vent valve goes to the top of the fuel pressure regulator, so bear that in mind dude
