Return fuel hose size?
« on: March 16, 2019, 06:39:47 PM »
Hi all,
does anyone know off hand what size rubber hose is the return fuel hose off the carb of a 1600?
I know it's smaller than the supply line, I want to say about 5/6mm?
The car is elsewhere and I remember it needed changing when last parked up/ran. Would be useful if I can get some hose before seeing the car next.
Thanks, Marcus
