[QUOTE="sparkywig, post: 457898, member: 3541"] For sale? I don't think so. It may be an old shitbox, but I'll never part with it. I've had a whiff of fuel recently after about 5 minutes driving, so after a bit of investigation I found all the fuel pipes to be like this. [img]http://sj.uploads.im/J1We0.jpg[/img] [img]http://sl.uploads.im/Ph83k.jpg[/img] The rubber had hardened and just pulled off the brass stubs on the fuel pump even with the clamps fully tightened. That's R9 rated fuel hose 3 years since being fitted. As a temporary measure I replaced the section between the pump and pressure regulator, and cut the end off all the other joints and refitted them. It should last long enough until I swap engines in a couple of weeks time. [/QUOTE]
