Fuel pipe

[wharfedale]

My S1 failed the test on a leaking fuel pipe . its the pipe from the tank to the pump, the one on was braided hose and had gone stiff and was wet with petrol at the tank end. it looks a funny size for fuel pipe, 16mm internal. is there a listed part or a particular material. Keith

Thanks found some after a long trail, its not a common size and I got the last 2 Metres from a shop in bradford. the old pipe was just the same to look at but was not resistant to to solvents or petrol. Thanks, Keith
