Does anyone know if those nylon fuel line pipes that goes from the tank to the steel pipe (return) and from the pump to the steel pipe are still available at Ford?
I was told they werent by my local dealer but that doesnt mean to say any of the dealers in the UK dont have some lying around in their store room somewhere.

According to Microcat I see that the pipe between the tank and steel pipe is only sold by running metres but is has a lot of twists and bends so I thought it was one single part number on this. The pipe that goes from the pump has a finis code (1638300) and is not sold by running metres. I've also seen that the nylon pipes and steel pipes is connected with a special plastic thing so I guess it must still be that way.
If the pipes are not available anymore, is there possible to get hold of braided 8mm fuel hoses? I want 8mm so I don't need to change all the fuel clips.
I was thinking of braided hoses myself but the smallest size you get here is 11 or 12mm OD and then they wouldn't fit in the original fuel/brake clips. I've seen that you can buy 8mm nylon pipes but is there possible to bend and shape them just like the originals? Any special tool or technic?
Sorry, I meant the nylon pipe that goes from the filter to the steel pipe, not from the pump. But does anyone know what kind of connectors I can use between the steel pipe and hose on the pressure side?
