Mikey S 29 1 Cars Posted April 29, 2007 Right just got a few questions regarding mot... I have braided fuel line run inside my car, if it touches the bodywork will it fail? Same questiong regarding to internal copper brake line? Do I need backplates on my rear discs as I have none? no, no, and no. i have just done my mot training and i dont remember anything about backplates, other than if it is loose.

Jrod 7 Posted April 29, 2007 The fuel line was my main concern as it's be a bit of a bitch to keep it off the body. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted April 30, 2007 I fitted internal braided fuel hoses to my mates pug and just held them in with cable ties, it passed the mot like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jrod 7 Posted April 30, 2007 I've got a few of the little block things you stick down and then put a cable tie through them but obviously where is flexibile pipe it's quite hard to keep off the body. Well fingers crossed my mot place won't be gay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyboy666 195 1 Cars Posted April 30, 2007 sorry to hijack but does anybody know if my car would pass the mot with french style plates on (pressed alu in french font and with euro stars and F on the side) just wondering if i'll need to change them back to the originals thanks john Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted April 30, 2007 They should fail it, but some testers will turn a blind eye. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pugrallye 0 Posted May 2, 2007 there is no legal requirement for rear disc backing plates, and your braided lines will be fine, just try to be sure they are not chafing on any sharp edges etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
