Where does the fuel hose from the tank n/s connect to ???

[maston]

Hi all,
Do you know where the fuel hose that is connected to the tank n/s connects to please ?
Also does anyone have a diagram showing all the fuel paths etc. please ?
Have bought some new fuel hose but it looks difficult to trace where all the fuel hoses lead from/to as I had a look under the car this evening with one of the fuel hoses going up somewhere ???
Any help appreciated
Regards
Ian

A bit unsure which one you are referring to as there could be a vent off the top, a return from the engine a feed to the swirl pot plus the big bugger that connects between the tanks and they tend to be different bores.

It connects directly to your credit card ;^)

Between tanks
1, 5/8" hose at the top - Balance breathing pipe
2, 1" hose with swirl pot - Delivery (Can be 3/4" on earlier models)
3, 1/4" hose from top of swirl pot to port on upper part of tank - Swirl pot breather although I have heard some don't always have this (Believe offside)
4, 3/8" hose from swirl pot to pump (Might need correcting on the size !!!) but take the oppourtunity to install a bullet pre pump filter if no filter fitted !
5, 1/4" out of pump to filter to engine

Outside nearside tank on outside
1, 1/4" hose, this is the return from the fuel injector rail on the engine

Cheers

ETA FYI I put some heatproof wrap around the main 1" hose, depending on your car this hose is in close proximity to the exhaust and whether warranted or not I was concerned of the heat on the rubber predominately when stationary so added some protection for the rubber.

Hi Ian...Hopefully this will help....

Good schematic, think the main high pressure filter is after the pump to protect the fuel rail and injectors on he stock set-up, a low pressure pre filter after the swirl pot and before the pump is a optional but wise fitting.

I found the top of the NS tank goes to the engine return, and the OS to the top swirl pot.
