Why not leave the fuel pipes standard?

I've never liked them so close to the alternator and belt, It's worried me since I did the SC last year

[Hark]

Few threads on here about possible fuel line changes. I know jg changed his, Rally did his own as well.

[Wreelybro]

Good work Chris you're s step ahead of me now. I'm still saving for flywheel clutch and slave.

just get a belt cover off JG, easier to fit, no worries doing it wrong and it looks decent.

This was from a post I put up a while ago. Ive been doing a bit of ringing around trying to get the best quote for these fuel lines and fittings and this place http://www.jjcraceandrally.com/ quoted me this.

Vat) £ Vat @ 20% Total Quoted £ 91.84 Ive took the parts from the list that Rally supplied me with so if this looks different its because there was different colours ordered on the other one meaning it looked like there was more parts. With this its the colour which you quote to the company that you would like. To get this deal just quote my name Luke Richardson and the quote number 5373996 EXP DATE 19/04/2013 Just to also let you know that this only goes back to the oem filter. You also need to order the adapters for the fuel rail from USA for this but i think JG has some of these in the pipe line.

Cheers luke will drop JG a PM,

if not i think i can get them from ebay

when you say it only goes back to the fuel filter, does the other line  go back to the in fuel tank bracket thing?

Think they where the ones I ordered off eBay.

With one of the adaptors you buy it has a ribbed affect on it which you have to slide the other fuel line over then put a jubilee clip on to be double safe it doesn't come off. Basically you just have to cut into it and then heat it loads so that it slides over enough. You also have to make 2 brackets up, one for keeping the fuel lines straight from the fuel filter and then a second one from the fuel rail to keep them straight.

That the bracket i made?

[haggi961]

Yep, that's both brackets from the scrap bits of metal.

[JG]

The fittings exist to go right back to the tank with aeroquip (or similar copies) fitting and braded hose.

 

I must admit i don't like that return coupling into the plasic pipe at all. Actually i don't really like the jublee clip on the high pressue either but that will probably be ok (it wouldn't pass any MSA inspection)

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

[Graeme Lambert]

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

[Hark]

I never managed to get one of those belt covers off JG.  Wanted one so I don't feel the need to do fuel lines but may come to it. 

[JG]

They are only for special people Really though, if you really want one I've got three or four unfinished ones.
