Thanks

Re: fuel pipe - filler to tank
Hi,
I've just replaced mine on my 85 GTX. Bought one from here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mocal-Straigh ... 1077460665 (but too narrow - which I've now got as spare for something, also available in different sizes from - http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorspor ... -neck-hose),
so bought this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-GOLF-MK1-G ... 1452129239. More expensive but did the job.
Also changed the filler pipe, tank, both pumps, fuel accumulator and all fuel pipes up to the fuel metering head. Cost a few ££££££!

Re: fuel pipe - filler to tank
where abouts are you based accyimp?
i have a meter of silicone pipe just for the job and can cut you a length to do the job.
let me know how long you need it and i will quote you a price posted.
if you can get your self some mikalor clamps to clamp the pipe with they are by far the best

Re: fuel pipe - filler to tank
Thanks for the offer James but I've already ordered one off e bay (thanks Serrow) but I'll take the advice on the mikalor clamps.
Thanks for all the help - getting there slowly but surely.
