gu4800 Member 156 Member For: 18y 2m 7d Location: Brisbane Posted 25/05/07 01:26 PM Share Posted 25/05/07 01:26 PM Fuel pump line had blown of fuel pump (my tuner had installed my new pump 2-3 wekks ago (not happy Jan)Just wondering how this could happen?I changed my fuel pump the other day, and used Gates Submersible fuel line. That hose is quite think and doesn't really flex that much. I had to measure the length required by measuring the fuel tank, cutting hose, trial fitting of pump, etc, etc, etc, until when fitted the pump assembly only had about 10mm of movement from being in the tank to compressed with the screws done up. I did use quality hose clamps as well.I guess my point is that the fuel line is wedged in so tight, it should really have sufficient movement to blow off I would think? By wedged, I mean once you compress the pump into the tank and take up the slack there must already be some serious force on the line to stay on the fitting.Any thoughts?Dan Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/34965-broke-my-t/page/4/#findComment-537227 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are simply puting efi hose submersedd in fuel. This hose cannot handle it some last a year some last 2 weeks or even two days. the hose goes floppy and balloons so under pressure it blows of with easeNathan Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/34965-broke-my-t/page/4/#findComment-537256 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a suitably qualified tuner knows that only Gates has worked this far, and the others (whilst saying "submersible") are not up to the task?Dan Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/34965-broke-my-t/page/4/#findComment-537261 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(now discovered it was not proper sumersable hose) So I better pull it out again So to summerize (sh*t happens) but shes going like a trooper again.Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/34965-broke-my-t/page/4/#findComment-537833 Share on other sites More sharing options...
