Can anyone give me the exact spec of rubber fuel hose used on M50's? (pressure and metric dia etc?)
Mine has finally reached croak age and is blowing up every other week... need to replace it pronto becuase I'm fed up of losing 15 miles worth of fuel every other week with a loud pop. (Read : 1Gallon @ like 7USD)

Hoses at the pump are 8x13mm. Where are you leaking from?

It's the little 3-4" hose that goes between the fuel rail under the intake manifold and the actual injector rail itself.
Next post will be a photo lol

It's the tiny little hose in the top left of this image - between the crank sensor and the manifold. Sorry about the crap image - stock photography, I'll get something more specific in a bit.

Edit - one of these days, when I finally get the engine running properly, I'll clean this fcking mess up :o
Get it from the dealer if you can, you will get the correct stuff and avoid disaster. I think they sell it by the foot. It's not cheap but it's cheaper than a fire. Don't ask me how I know.
