russj249 2 Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 That will be prenty if there's 30m. I nearly did all of mine with 10. Think you might need a few more than 8 ties though as it's a bit tricky to get it between the pipes. Have to improvise a bit.Also make sure you use gloves and to make it easier soak the heat wrap in water before and while you do it. Makes it easier to use.Also, I personally recommend after fitting. Run the car up to full temp on the drive. Don't do what I did and take it up the road as it smokes loads 1st time it gets hot and was pissing out of my bonnet at the traffic lights in the middle of my village. Bit embarrassing.
