Fuel lines
« on: October 18, 2014, 06:13:14 PM »
So I decided to clean my tank out, fuel lines and put a new filter in.  All went well but now I have a leak from the top of the fuel filter.  It's the metal pipe that goes to the carbie.  I think I may have damaged the flange when reassembling it and now it leaks  :banghead:

Can anyone advise if this part is available locally or do I have to ship it from the US of A?

Cheers
Andy

After "visiting" the show and shine, I had to get home and take a closer look at mine.  I had a rare brain "light bulb" moment, and decided to put the old fuel filter in just to be sure before I changed the 3/8" steel tube.  Low and behold, no leak  :omg:  Damn, faulty "new" filter  :grr:
