The fuel reg will click into place once its fully seated then the clip will go back on.

You need to make sure the FPR o-rings are lubed with something like engine oil, otherwise its a right bastard and near impossible to get the thing to push down and full seat.

Or if you forget to depressurise the fuel line beforehand, then you can just shove it in......auto lube

I would firstly suggest that would lead to an express removal of the FPR and a likely eye injury.

If the bonnet wasn't there I wonder how far it would fling it...
