    Hi all. Just joined this group as finally got hold of my first Triumph. Im the proud owner of a 2000 855i Tiger.
    First job is to change the fuel pump plastic fixings to metal ones. Just need to find the right post on here to get the right ones

    Welcome chunk. Best forum on the internet.

    If/when you get the Tom Parker metal fuel connectors don't tighten them all the way down, it damages the seal. Put them about half way in.

    It's PTFE tape (or equivalent) that creates the seal, not them being 'tight'.

    Apologies if you know this.
