Flexible fuel pipes

Post by Geof Delmege » Fri Apr 05, 2024 1:31 pm

I need to get the three flexible fuel lines remade using the existing end fittings as I seem to remember the the fittings on the Gipsy Major installation are no longer available. Any pointers on where to go to get PTFE lines made would be most helpful.
Thanks in advance

I have used Saywell's. They seem to be able to make up any fuel hoses.

If they are AN ends, not some ancient British spec, any race shop or hydraulic shop will make them up.
