Fuel Hose

Evenin all,

So ive finally started to rebuild her  Got a price from nissan yesterday for a few rubber hoses from tank to main fuel lines, and could get over the cost of a hose that is 6" long!!  So Im going to buy a 5m length of fuel hose and redo all ruber pipes on tank and everywhere else that has rubber.  What do I need to look for in terms of good quality fuel hose?

Read something on here about someone buying fuel hose and it splitting but cant remember who it was?

Made new brake and fuel lines today from Cupro Nickel (KUNIFER):

^ you showing off with those close ups looks good effort as is a right pain get look neat & in position required
Fuel hose is SAE graded, one you show is J30R6 , R6 is basically low pressure fuel pipe. you want R9 or R12 I would think.
for submersed pipe you should use R10 I believe as many pipes only have resistance to fuel chemicals on inner layer rather than outer as well .

Needs a bit of tweeking, once I get the brake bias valve on and fuel filter bracket etc on I can get the final position of stuff. Sure the great british weather will dull them down very quickly
