Default Fuel pipe size

Evening all

While I was changing my gearbox mount at the weekend I noticed that the flexible hose from the UBP to the NRV has been rubbing on the engine and is nearly worn through! (Due to the engine being over an inch lower than it should be!)
Can anyone give me a size guide so I don't have to strip it down first and then have to walk 5 miles to my local motor factors please

Cheers Tony

Why not disconnect the hose and measure the bore with a ruler?

Because the clips are of the non reusable stainless crimped '0' clip type

I hate to be so blunt, but if it was oh so simple I wouldn't have wasted my time and yours by asking.

With the Frustratingly annoyings amount of questions about under bonnet pump faults. I'd have thought someone might have an idea of what size the pipe was.

Hi Tony.
The clips are reusable just need a small screwdriver to pirse them open them a pair of pliers to squash them back together after, which hose are you after, I have some diesel fuel hoses in the shed so can most certainly find out the size for you, but I may have what you need cheers Arctic
