Fuel Injection Joints
Mike S - 14/11/05 at 04:14 PM

Just finalising the fuel system.

I am using a Blackbird injection engine using the original bike fuel pump.

I know that the SVA man will check that the fuel hose is for use with fuel injection.

Do the unions have to be of the swaged type or are stainless hose clamps (Jubilee type) ok?

I currently have banjo's which have the barbed hose connection with stainless hose clamps.

I'm just wondering if this is ok for SVA ?

Thanks

Mike

Hose clamps on barbed fittings is fine.

My MX5 engine runs FI and I simply fitted the correct fuel hoses and 'proper' fuel hose clamps - NOT JUBILEE CLIPS.
