I believe (i'm sure someone will correct me if i'm wrong) that the fuel restrictor is the plastic insert that goes into the fuel filler neck so that you can only put unleaded in rather than the larger diesel nozzle.

About £15 but theyre only required for SVA, not MOT. Seems a little out of date as Id defy most people to find leaded petrol in England.....

Better ones are metal btw.
