Hi All,



I discovered today that the hose that runs from the output side of my 

fuel pump to the fuel de-bubbler (the spherical yellow tank on the 

firewall) was leaking like a sieve, with gas just dripping out of it all 

along it length. To be fair, the hose (like the airplane) dates from 

1995 as best I can tell, so there has been more than 12 years of service 

life on it. Of course, now I have the problem of how to replace this 

hose. Any suggestions? The fittings seem to be OK (the fitting on the 

pump side appears to be a banjo fitting, while the fitting on the 

de-bubbler side looks like the Russian equivalent of AN...). The hose OD 

is just shy of 2 cm, and I have no idea what the ID is. Obviously, my 

first choice is to find a supplier for the complete hose (but that 

doesn't appear likely at this point), but alternatively, I am willing to 

make a new hose if someone can tell me a) what hose to use, and b) what 

fittings to use (or how to work the old ones...).



Any ideas?

Scott,

 I have some bulk fuel hose here and may be able to match what you have.  I would try Jill at M14P INC first as they have a good stock of 52 support parts.  If Jill cannot help you with a hose assembly let me know the ID and the OD and I'll check my stock.

   

 Always Yakin,

 Doug

Remove the hose and ship it to Doug Sapp.   He will make a new hose for you using your old ends to the exact same  length.
