Marc,
Thanks for the help.
After looking at my car, and looking in the FA, I think I've determined that
I'll just replace the Feed and Return lines on the car.
Looking at your list (very helpful, thank you) I think I need the following
things...can you just read it over to see if I've missed something?
12mmx1.5 Banjo x1 (fuel filter outlet)
Fuel Filter (for the $50 I might as well do it too...)
4 Audi Sealing washers (fuel filter)
-6 Bulkhead x2 (firewall and rear of car)
-6 perform-o-flex hose x27 feet (lines, but I'm not doing fuel tray lines)
-6 barb fitting (for return line to tank)
I'm confused as to why I need a -6 to -6 union, your page lists it as "connects
return barb to return fitting" What is this for?
That above list covers everything I need to get to the firewall...but I'll
still need fittings for the CIS lines. Your previous email states:
>My GUESS is probably either 14 or 16mm with 1.5 thread pitch. You should be
>able to measure the fitting size pretty easily. The thread pitch on all of
>the fuel fittings I have encountered is 1.5.
How do I measure if it's 14 or 16mm? Is it simply the wrench size used to turn
the fitting?
Looking at the cost of this on your webpage, I think it's going to end up
outside my budget (even at wholesale) of $200CDN. I might have to run stock
steel lines for now...but we'll see!
Thanks for your help Marc,
-Dave
