Re: [doc] Re: Question Re Fuel Weep on Compression connection.........

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The original hoses come as seperate parts - the ends plus the hose in 
the middle - in fact the part number for the two fuel tank hoses and the 
accumulator supply hose are the same. It's these three hoses that we 
have specially made with new ends (which aren't available from Houston) 
and a much more flexible high pressure rubber fuel hose, as opposed to 
the original thermoplastic hose. The thermoplastic hose is very 
difficult to push onto the ends and it's a good idea to reinfoce them 
with slips once on there. Mine are just pushed on and they work fine - 
this is how I did them back in 2001 when my car arrived.

There are so many things on my car that I'd do differently now!
