Fuel Pipe Leaks

[Derek Clews]

Dear All,

Happy New Year. Hands dirty again. Got back to work on one of the Q’s and all well until running it and smelled petrol and found it running out of a fuel pipe onto the garage floor. Had to drop the tank and replaced both flex hoses to the top of the tank. Fitted the P9 for ethanol. The ‘old’ ones were not that old but only P6 spec. One pipe was through in multiple places with a multitude of cracks. Definitely not chafing. So a timely reminder - those hoses need updating as we go through other jobs…….

On my other kit car it’s an annual job to check and replace petrol pipes that are splitting, it’s only the outer layer but better to be safe, there’s always at least one to replace
