Title: Fuel Hose Size?
Post by: BMWTom on January 01, 2010, 19:42:41

I am putting my fuel tank back in my '67 250sl and looking for the correct size of fuel line that goes from the tank to the fuel pump. The piece of hose that came off was the nice braided line and appears to be 10mm ID. I have some 1/2" rubber line for the time being, but it doesn't fit right (too big), and I've been searching parts for bulk 10mm fuel line on the internet and in town with no results.

1) Is the fuel line from tank to fuel pump 10mm?
2) Where do I get metric fuel line? Can you still get the nice braided hose?

Thanks

Found some braided 11mm hose at Autohaus. I think this is correct.

the last time I bought fuel line I ordered it from Tom at the classic center.
I needed the line with the fitting that goes from the pump to the tank.

I had it in a few days.

YEP!  It's 11mm.
