  5. HI Frank yes it is very straight forward fitting a D2/4 eber the only real fiddly bit is connecting the copper tube from the off tap to the heater inlet as the said inlet has a flared nipple that needs carefully filing down as to fit the 4mm olive over Don't cut the inlet down as it will not leave enough tube to fit the fitting and also fit all the wiring through any bulkheads before you attach the plugs/sockets and you also need to lag the S/S exhaust with exhaust wrap hope this helps Regards Craig
