as title suggests,

can someone tell me the diametre of the fpr to carb fuel delivery hose?
ive just noticed that the one i have one is leaking slowly:eek: pretty lucky i noticed this while that car is still off the road!
the one i fitted before dropping my new build back in is a braided fuel hose, im wanting to got back to the std OE fuel hose as its shaped to fit.

so can someone give me the part number for this hose and also tell me the diametre of it ?
does anyone happen to have one?

ahh, so which end is bigger? the fpr end or the carb end?

if its the carb end i suppose i could simply get a brass reducer and fix it to the hose just before the carb and fit a smaller diameter hose to it.

but i need to be sure on what diameter the carb end hose is??

The hose that comes out of the fpr going to the carb is smaller, mike 16v has the genuine part if you need it probabley new and second hand.
