"FI hose" What do you mean?

Post by tomlebatisseur »

I' ve a leak at an injector hose, and i can not find an hose > 10 bar (europe). simple fuel hose.
I'm afraid. is it sufficient?
And the clamp? which clamp? is it secure?
How many Bar the pump of a 124 (year 1980) can push?

thanks.
Vincent.

FI hose needs to be rated for 150 psi. One bar = one atmosphere = 14.7 psi. Therefore 10 Bar hose should be fine.

Here's a package that I used to replace my engine compartment FI hoses that shows the needed hose ratings and the clamps.

thanks, i've seen this product on bayless, but from Belgium, it's very expensive , transport, import taxes ....and a long time to receive the product.

I will use a good hose here, and good clamp

The link was more for illustration purposes, but if you can find the same hose where you live then you can reuse the bell style clamps that are already on your fuel rail.
