Ethanol safe braided fuel line

Post by Glenn »

Here's a stock looking cloth braided hose, made in Germany that is E85 safe.

Since i was planing on replacing all my fuel line anyway I purchase some of the 6mm and some of the 8mm.

https://www.belmetric.com/multifuel-hos ... 5q4a0ee7t0
6.0mm Flennor Multi-Fuel hose. ID 6.0mm, OD 11.0mm

Approved for gasoline, diesel fuel, water, air,heating oil and withstands higher levels of Ethanol up to E85

That means this hose can handle up to 85% ethanol in gasoline. Working temperature, -25 to 250 Degrees Farenheit

Working pressure 150 PSI, DIN 73379

So are you going to drive it this year ? Getting it inspected and fresh gas doesn't count.
Still Monkeying Around. Not afraid to tell you how I really feel.

Well... I don't plan on towing it to the inspection station. Though I do have my tow bar back ;)
