Mike 


- it was a Bosch Fuel Pressure Switch - Part Number 0 344 101 055  which
cost around =A37-8 + 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
