As HJP says petrol on the stock aero screens can damage them. My L/H screen was affected & cracked. I've now fitted a Fairbourne screen.

Yes, one of my windscreens is now pitted in an area from the fuel spray.

Its a bit of a hassle to remove the factory clamps.

It is a good idea to replace the factory fitted crimped on fuel hose clips as they do have a history of leaking around the injectors. In the picture you have posted, I may be wrong but it looks like you have replaced them with Jubilee type clips rather than proper fuel hose clips, like these:

There is a difference, Jubilee clips do not give an even 360 degree pressure and can allow leaks.

Q8 did you change the two clamps at the other end of the hoses down behind the engine? I agree with planenut & used proper fuel hose clips.

I am looking to get some clips to exchange mine over to fuel hose clips "just in case".
I think I need 4 - 2 for the crossover pipe between the injectors and 2 for the feed pipe - is that right ?
Thanks

4 hose clips on the engine, as detailed and 2 more down the back of the engine at the other end of the rubber hoses. These are not replaced by the factory when they do the modification and don't seem to have a problem with leaking like the engine mounted ones do. Possibly replacement of them isn't required?
