Dellorto fuel pipe size?

  1. recently noticed fuel pipe was damp out of the banjo from 1 delortto dlra 40 carb t0 the other.
    On investigation the braded fuel pipe only a few years old was cracked and brittle.
    So time to replace them all, but what size do I need? The look a bit bigger than the 5.6mm usual fuel pipe on standard engines!
    Please tell me what diameter hose I need for twin 40 dels and what make is good and which code do you need for modern high ethanol bio fuel?
    Thanks
     
  2. 8mm. I use Gates off the reel at the local motor factors.

  6. These guys have good experience with gates fuel hose. Loads of people have had bad experience with R9 rated fuel hose so end up with 100% bio fuel hose.

    I'll post a link when I can find it
     
  7. Thanks going to buy 1m of 8mm 100%biofuel hose
