Oops, I forgot to change the subject when I posted the message below.
Please disregard it in the other thread.

I just started the annual check. I noticed that the hose that connects
the two tank outlets with the outleg sockets has deteriorated.
Has anyone found a better material for this purpose than just rubber hose?
What about the oil grade silicone hoses? Would that stand ethanol
blended fuel?
Can anyone confirm that the hose required has an inner diameter of 25mm
(1 inch)?
Thanks,
Frans

Hi Fran
Yes the internal Diameter is 1 inch and i have replaced mine with the same hose they use on petrol Station forecourts,
the walls are over a 1/4 inch thick so its quite a job getting them in place using hot water to soften them, But it gives me peace of mind being at the lowest part of the tank,
I know pressure doesn't come into it but the hose is rated at 150 PSI and very good quality, i Did give all this information to Andy
draper at the LAA so he may well have it, i will look back through my records when i get the chance, i believe it was a company
called Hose world,
best wishes
Ivor
