I have a new one for for pump and a new for retutn ..the return one is on but I can pull it off with force so will just clamp that as it wont be under much pressure. but the one for the actual pump id like to do correctly I did the return one first and I tried boiling water but it did not work so tried a heat gun and it worked... but slightly loose. hence why ill put a clamp on it. do I dobthe same for fuel pump hose?

I didn't actually know you could buy it. Your on the right track with heat, but seams risky, considering what you have done so far. And you don't want to add lubricant. Maybe a smear of petrol would help to get it to slide. How close does it go on with boiling water? Also email them. The add seemed helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up submersable hose & hose clamps - been on for nearly 3 years & no problems but I would prefer the plastic hose (maybe should have bought the module from fleabay already assembled) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
