the access plate is big enough to get your arm in, well it is on the petrol version and I see no reason for the diesel to be different, Rick

cool i did mine when i did the twin tank for 2 reasons 1. to make sure all pipework was ok as i thought i had an air leak and 2. so to insulate the flow and return to the tank to keep the veg oil warmer when it got back to tank so in winter should keep veg oil runnier when the outside temps drop
