12mm Fuel Injection Hose?

[RRoller123]

What do we use for the 12mm fuel injection supply hose from the FI tank barb to the fuel filter?

The barb measures 12mm but I don't see that size FI hose available anywhere.

When using 5/16" in place of 8mm, no problem, there is only 0.002" difference, and only 0.017" difference from 7.5mm hose.

But the 1/2" I.D. line is 0.028" oversize, and that seems like quite a stretch.

So do you folks use 1/2" and just clamp it tightly? It is at lower pressure at this point in the system, so I suppose this is ok?

you don't need high pressure FI hose from the tank to the pump, that's the suction side

Ah of course, so the 1/2", which is significantly oversize, is fine, just crank it down tightly?

Finally found some 12mm Fuel Hose. Vick's carries it.
