Fuel Hose sizes

[Dachdu2002]

Hey Folks, i need to replace the fuel lines on my 75 02 What size are the lines and how much do i need for all the lines? are all the fuel lines the same size? and its just a 2002 not a tii or anything.

8mm or 5/16in.

Ok sweet man, so its all 8mm?

Standard 2002's should use the same 8mm I.D. fuel hose. Tii's have a larger fuel supply line from the tank to the electric pump.

Wild guess on the lengths (carby guys please correct me):

Fuel tank to plastic line running thru body: 2 ft.

Plastic line at front to fuel pump: 2 ft.

Fuel pump to carburetor: 1 ft.

Tii's:

12mm Fuel tank to electric pump: 3.5 ft.

8mm Pump/accumulator to metal line near D.S. wheel: 4 ft.

8mm for Metal line at front to fuel filter: 2 ft.

8mm for Fuel filter to KF pump: 12"

8mm for KF pump to cold start valve: 2 ft.

8mm for KF pump return to firewall: 3 ft.

8mm for plastic return line at rear to fuel tank: 2 ft.

Some fuel pumps have a what I think is a 6mm hose from the pump out to the carb. Take a look and see what you have and then buy. Any German car dealer will have fuel line sold by the meter. regular auto parts stores will probably only have Uhmerkin sizes.

Sorry for the triple post I didn't realise everytime I realoaded the web page my phone was also posting the same thing over and over

8 x 13 mm hose everywhere ............, except at some mechanical

fuel pumps - one fitting maybe smaller so a 6mm~8mm brass

barbed adapter maybe needed and a section of smaller i.d. hose at the pump.

I have a '71 and just replaced the fuel line between the tank sender and the plastic fuel line that runs through the trunk. I used 1/4'' (6.4mm) which provided a better fit than the 8mm. In the engine compartment, there is a plastic push on fitting over the plastic fuel line as it exits the firewall. That is a little larger and the 8mm works fine between it and the carb.
