Best way to store it? And how long can I store it for?
Got my hands on a Bosch thanks to Samass, but we didnt get round to fitting it last week, now I don't want it to go dry etc.
Also I did search, as I know there was a thread before, but couldn't find it. Just a shit load of fs threads and tuning guides lol

Fill it with diesel, and turn it over every so often, its the way I store mine, and its been sitting best part of a year

I'm a newb to pumps etc, when you say fill, do you mean fill it via the fuel line or is there a way to get in to it to fill it up

Leave it sat in a container of diesel, literally submerge it.

That would be the handier way
I had a bosch on my first engine, so just unscred the fuel in line and pumped the primer till it went hard

This better be for what we were convincing you about at Reading; if it's not, i will be massively dissapointed... ?
