fuel pipes are 8mm IIRC. It needs to be suitable for fuel injection systems (i.e. not carb fuel delivery). It actually runs at 3 bar, but fuel injection pipe is invariably rated a lot higher than that, 10 or 12 bar springs to mind.

Dont want to sound pedantic but it's actually 7.6mm, may not sound like a much but it does make a difference. You can get it from a place called spectrum hose, 01494 524 332
