You need to get some new hose into it. You only need to really worry about the high pressure side being submersible hose, cos the return is just that, low pressure and has nothing forcing on it.

I have been through 3 different hoses, all supposed to be submersible, according to the shops involved. They all spilt where the hose clamp was holding them in place. All lasted an average of 3 months, whereas the last one I did was from trickys deisel up the road from you, and it lasted almost 6 months. I had the gates submersible in my glovebox, and now it sits in the tank! And it feels good knowing that it has "submersible fuel hose" printed on the side of it.

I dunno it revs fine out of gear, I hope it isn't a leak it's meant to get tuned in 2 hrs

that's cos there is no load in neutral. If you give it WOT does it make stutter or go bang?

I had some massive lean backfires and it was traced to the fuel hose.

I had a PDS hooked up, and on the factory tune, it was fine until 3500rpm, then it leaned out to 16's and off the screen!

They are in Campbellfield. Bluepower thems is called.

those were thee symtoms marcus

postponed the tune where did u get the gates hose from

[Fat-Tony]

it was somewhere in the south eastern suburbs of melb I think, so either way its going to be a big drive for you, perhaps you should get the diesel hose that Marcus got to get it going, worked as good as the gates stuff until it eventually sh*t itself, and we were fairly certian that the ethanol fuel was the problem otherwise it could have lasted longer

you can buy Gates fuel hose from Repco.

Any Repco store can order the Gates hose for you.
