Hi all,
For those of you still running standard vacuum taps, petcocks, Benzinhahn or whatever you want to call them (as I am)...
Just after I bought my TR1, I was about to head out for a ride and I noticed pretty extreme pulses in the fuel passing through the fuel pipes. I was sure that this was due to the un-damped vacuum from the intake manifolds to the fuel taps pulling the tap diaphragms in then releasing them. I was also sure this was not healthy for those rubber diaphragms. So I set about sourcing some dampers. Basically none were easily adaptable, so I put my thinking hat on and came up with the solution you can see here..

Hope you find it useful.
Cheers all,
