Tried it.. but that particular pipe is shaped for good reason as the path it follows is very tight (standard motor factor pipe kinks).

Take a pic for me and I'll have a look at the lump I have to see if it's still there or different to your early engine.

You make it a lot longer than it needs to be and then loop it so no kinks .....
I'd not be fitting a secondhand one .

Checked just now and can confirm that on the later (twin fuel reg) engine the fuel hose setup is completely different so I can't help.

I have to agree fitting a 2nd hand pipe (I always recommend you buy new parts if they are available) is a big gamble. What is wrong with yours?

Sent them a web enquiry yesterday... no response (website does say "Ask", so I'm guessing they don't have them). But I'll try ringing them tomorrow anyways, ta.

Bought a length of competition hose today, as it's strong yet still flexible, so at least I've got a plan B.
