flexible fuel lines - sizes ?

Post by hot66 »

My car is locked away inside its carcoon ( bugger to get out :roll: )

I'm wanting to buy some new fuel flexi pipes tomorrow. What size is the flexi between the solid inlet line in teh engine compartment to the inlet on the fuel filter? (item 83 on diagram)

What size is the small flexi pipe that comes out of the top of the fuel filter that joins the 't-piece ? (item 85 on diagram)

James - one of the advantages of PET (or the parts pdf files you downloaded) is that it gives details of bolt sizes, threads, hose diameters/lengths, etc.

the 4 hoses (83) are 7mm ID/12 mm OD & the lengths are:

180mm
240mm
570mm
620mm

the smaller hose from the solenoid valve (85) is 4.5mm ID/9.5mm OD & it is 275mm long.

:wink:
