Petrol Lines

[Guest fred]

Could someone please tell me the diameter of the rubber pipes which are attached to the metal petrol lines under the car, its just I've got a slight leak from them, I would prefer to know the diameter of them so that I can just go out and buy them rather then take them off first, thanks all help is much appreciated.

IIRC it is 8mm hose.

 

But you MUST get high pressure hose, not the standard fuel hose you would put on ordinary cars. ZX runs very high fuel pressure so standard hose may burst under the strain :cool:

It might be worth contacting Smithy in the traders section. He can supply braided hoses with all the nice/right ends to replace your engine bay fuel lines - good price too ;)
