Fuel pipe size

PostPost by: jimj » Wed Apr 23, 2014 1:52 pm

I`m going to fetch my Elan back from Portugal next month. It`s been stood since December with their high ethanol fuel in the tank. I did add Millers methanol protect or whatever it`s called. I can`t imagine much fuel will have remained in the rubber pipes for long but it`s probably a good idea to take some spare pipe. What size is it?

On an S4 the original Hard Plastic Fuel Pipe is 8mm OD so if you picked up a Mtr length of Silicone 8mm ID Hose and some spring clips of a suitable ID you would have enough for any connections which needed replacing. I am only working in Metric as it is more readily available
