Cosworth 4x4 fuel pipe...help !!!!
Hi, I have cracked the plastic heat shrink fuel pipe that feeds the fuel pump(connects to the banjo)inlet side and was wondering what I can use to replace it.
Also is the 4x4 cosworth fuel filter the same as the 2wd one.thanks

If you cannot find another just get a braided pipe made up, be cheaper than paying inflated cossie prices anyway, and be flexible son won't break/crack.
Fuel filters same 2wd and 4wd.
The pipe you refer to though is the OUTPUT from the pump to the filter, as the inlet is a braided bit of flexy pipe direct to the tank to pump.

Thanks for the reply,s guys, It is the standard fuel pump etc ( 941 model ).
There is just a couple of things that I wanted to know,
1/ What internal diameter braided hose will I need to buy.
2/ What can I secure the hose with, i.e will jubilee clips be strong enough, cheers,Darren.

Bought all my bits from this site, I wouldn't reccommend using jubilee clips TBH mate, you'll maybe get away with it on the return line but i wouldn't do it on the pressure side.

As for the hose, i used -6 which is part number 200-6, you'll find that's what 99% of the people on here use.

Thanks for the help Rog, I don,t want to be cheeky, but is there any chance you could look at the site and give me the part numbers and quantities of the parts I,ll need..Its just that I have no experience of these type of fittings,cheers, Darren.

Aye i can have a look mate, was in the same position as you when i did my fuel lines, had fuck all clue what i needed, but sussed it out in the end. Not cheap though as i ended up doing the whole lot. Is it just the pump to filter your doing, just so we don't get confused here?

Rog, I,ve found a shop on e-bay called Torques_UK it seams to have everything.
If its easier for you you could look on there and I can get it ordered off them,cheers,Darren.

On the tank to pump feed jubilees are fine, as only little pressure, the output could be secured perfectly safely with jubilee clips, if decent ones, personally if in a hurry I would use OPA pipe, I use this injection pipe, it is up to 25 BAR, so more than enough, and cheap, the last bit I bought was 17mm(internal) 1 meter for Ł5.86p(inc vat).
Although it can be safe with jubilee clips, it never looks it, in pressure terms it is no pressure at all.

Tabetha, its the pump to filter that I need to sort out( thin heat shrink pipe with a banjo on either end). I,ve already replaced the tank to pump pipe with 1 of them matt lewis ones off e-bay.
I just dont know what to order when it comes to these aeroquip jobbies.

Had a look at that link mate, can't really see all the bits you need there.
But here's what i'd reccomend;
1 Metre of hose (pt.no 200-6) page 16
1 x AN-6 to M14 x 1.5 to screw into your filter (pt.no 30...06-14) Page 19 (you'll need a copper washer too)
2 x Hose ends to -6 female thread (pt. no. 1136-0106) Page 16(but you could opt to use 1 hose end and a Banjo hose end on the other side and elimitate the banjo i've listed further down.
Plus you'll also need to confirm the thread for the cap on your fuel pump, the info i have is for a 044 pump and i'm sot 100% sure it uses the same valve.
But the cap i used was an M12 x 1.5 ,and you'll also need an an M12 single straight Banjo to -6 Male thread, IF it's an M12 cap your using.
At work at the moment so can't draw/post pics, but if you need anymore help give me a shout. I'm not saying you can't use jubilees, but it's just my way of making sure everything is as good as it can be.
