Fuel line manufacturer recommendations?

PostPost by: Will5000 » Mon Jul 06, 2015 11:41 am

Hi all.

Noticed a leak from one of the braided fuel lines at the weekend. Just wondered if anyone could recommend a good replacement manufacturer, as I may as well replace all of them now. Is braided really necessary, as it's hard to spot leaks if they fail...?

Cheers

Strip off the braided hoses and make up a new fuel line using standard rubber fuel hoses, screw clamps and the original fittings from your braided line. Has worked for me for 40 years and you can see if any leak or deterioration of the rubber hoses
