Howdy!! Thinking about changing fuel lines on my H1-A. McMaster has "buna-n (nitrile) rubber/pvc that is good for up to 15% ethanol .3/16 i.d. Thoughts? Also, what clamps,if any, are you using? I should probably get stat-o-seals while i`m at it. What size, or better yet, part number should I get? Thanks for all the help, and GREAT site !! |

Here's a recent thread on fuel lines: http://www.kawi2strokes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2414 Most guys don't use clamps with 3/16" ID tubing. McMaster-Carr also has Parker Stat-O-Seals in metric sizes. The oil line banjo bolts are 6mm at the pump. |

I don't have any off to measure, sorry. I wouldn't mind using Stat-O-Seals there myself, although John's right about that not normally being a joint that leaks. |

I have re-used the big washers with no leaks or problems also but thought it may be a good idea to put fresh ones in there this time so why not Stat-O-Seals there too? Reproduction Decals sells the complete set of aluminum washers but not individuals. I may just pick up a set, for $14 I get all, it's less than stat-O-seals for the big end. BTW, Reproduction Decals sells a set of 10 6mm Stat-O-Seals for $11, McMaster wants $14.80 for 10! Not the norm for McMaster to cost more but pay attention on this one! |

Thanks for the replies. I guess I should use the search before asking for info. Can`t think of anything else to order from McMaster. |

The delivered price will probably swing the other way for US customers. MSC also has them, but I haven't checked the price lately. |
