Title: Fuel Hoses under plenum...where from??
Post by: Laeeq on January 31, 2007, 12:21:44 PM
As above lads

Where can i get the fuel hoses that are connected to injectors under plenum...

Im really paranoid about them now as they are over 13 years old and had a small leak the other day that i have now sorted but want to replace all of them with good clips....

Thanks

Probably any of the specialists will get them cheaper than a local Mazda place.

I just got every fuel pipe on the car inc gaskets etc for $70 :) $55 shipping but I did also get all the coolant pipes and a few other bits.

Bit of a side issue, but are the fuel lines subject to inspection for an MOT?

i\'ll find out if i can get them in green for you grinder mate!
Will probably be a bit more pricey though cos i\'ll have to order them which means paying for them rather than just stealing it from work! lol

I did mine a bit back, I used 8mm bore (well it was 7.5mm but was tight) and from memory it was 1m long lenth that did all the fuel rails and the lines at the NS Bulkhead also make sure its high Presure Fuel hose becouse there is Low presure too.

You want to buy proper Fuel hose Clips not Jublie (sp) and if your Paranoid (like me ;)) Push the pipe as far on as it will go and put two on each joint. (i put a few Drops of Fuel in the pipe becouse i was having issues with it going on, i was going to use WD40 but thought if it went on easyer it would come of easyer too at least with the Fuel it Evaporated off)

poo - I thought you had precise lengths measured for the various fuel runs between primary / secondary rails and the fuel filter !  You mean I still got to measure it all :(

Had an SOS...:(  call so got some HP hoses and clips from a BurtonPowers so  that i can get this job out of the way tonight.  May be going to this FUEL show and another secret location show tomorrow night....:Thumbsup!

I also got some fire proof thrmo sleeves to wrap them in.   After a careful inspection last night i did noticed that one of the hose just sits on top of the rear rotor:eek and with high temps this cant be good so good safe option will have to be taken as this could just be a time bomb waiting to go ....:xconfused :eek

will take some pics up tonight while at it.  So, now i will have good 3 meter of these HP hose + Lum90 will be sending some over too so let me know if anyone needs them+ the clips....:bandit
