gotta pick up some new fuel hose for the type 3 tomorrow morning as i found out that the old one has just about had it, just wondering what the size is for the standard line that runs from the tank (mine now goes to an external filter, but still standard hose) what is the hose diameter?

thanks
Ryan

Original was 6 mm but you may have to settle for 1/4" (0.35 mm larger bore). Make sure you use hose clamps to secure it tightly on the smaller pipe!
