Fuel Hose

[ChimaeraPaul]

Can anyone tell me where to buy 12mm fuel hose from to fit between the pump and tank of my Chimaera? I'd like to fit hoses meeting the SAEJ30 R9 spec but after spending a long time searching the net I can't find anyone selling the 12mm ID hose that I need. Thankyou in advance for any help. Paul.

Thanks for the quick reply. The Carbuilders hose is SAE J30R7 spec, not R9. As it is going to be quite a bit of work removing the tank in order to replace the pipe from it to the metal pipe that passes through the boot floor I wanted to get the latest spec if possible.

Thanks again Belle427 especially for the advice re. not having to remove the tank. I assumed I would have to in order to change the hose between the metal pipe which passes through the body and the tank - you've saved me a lot of work! Back to the hose, it seems the Gates part number for 12mm ID is "Gates 27306" but has to come from the States. The part shown on the TVR Parts Ltd site is the same as the PAS hose which I'm not sure is suitable for fuel injection.

Thanks all for your help. I've ordered the Cohline hose from car builder solutions.
