Fuel hose size 5/16 or 3/8 possible?
Fuel hose size 5/16 or 3/8 possible?
Has anyone used 3/8" fuel hose?
I just got my new JEGS catalog and I'm gonna nuts again...
I haven't been able to find fuel injection hosing locally... I know I can use the 'regular' hose but I'm gonna order the SSFLEX HOSE... just need to know the size...
TIA

You're probably going to have to go metric seeing as the Maxima is Japanese. I doubt that a Japanese car uses emperial sized parts.

Just wondering if 3/8" is too big to clamp over the existing hardlines.

Also don't try and force 5/16 hose on 3/8 fittings because they will rupture the reinforcing internally and cause the rubber top cover to bulge and rupture. My Son found out the hard way.
