Hi all, I am having probs finding somewhere that has the original 7mm fuel hose and can swage on either new or existing fittings.

The usual suspects (Pirtek) only have an 8mm ID hose. Hyphose have a 7.5m ID hose. Both *might* be able to use the existing fittings (need to see them).

Do people just usually step up to 8mm hose and is this OK when fitted to the copper pipes?

I am based in Andover so anywhere Reading Swindon, Southampton is viable.

Cheers,

Matt

these guys in Wycombe are pretty good. in fact in going to see them in a few weeks so i could let you know as my fuel hose between supply and rail is getting worn. I've not used them yet but they have a good reputation.
