Braided Fuel Line Warning

[Snapperpaul]

Getting very close to SVA so i should not be surprised by little problems.

 

Gavin and i were checking over a few things when he noticed fuel in the engine bay, after removing the Pipercross i found that one of the braided lines was pouring out fuel and the others were soft and squishy.

I then looked at a set i bought from Stoneligh which were described as fuel hoses but looked and felt no different.

Ended up fitting standard injection fuel hose instead.

 

I have wasted a lot of money on cheap braided hoses so the moto is buy the proper stuff from a reliable supplier or use the marked rubber stuff

I had expensive braided hose from europa and it split re ran in copper an hi Pressure rubber.
