got some fuel hose thats 100psi and wondering if its enough for the 2 lines at the fuel filter??

googling around and im seeing hose thats in excess of 500psi so im trying to avoid a messy engine bay.

to be safe lets say the car will be running just over 25psi

thanks

I'd give it a miss, go a minimum rating of 250psi.

why whats the point?

as a general rule of thumb hose will hold at least 20% (from memory) more pressure than it's rated to.

100psi fuel hose will be more than adequate, just make sure you use some decent hose clamps and not those stupid wire things most jap cars seem to use.

EFI Hose is rated to SAE30R9 standard.

So many people flog of normal carby fuel hose SAE30R7 as EFI hose, so be careful.

Difference is SAE30R7 working pressure is 50psi and min burst pressure of 250psi.

SAE30R9 working pressure is 125psi and min burst pressure of 900psi.

You should always buy hose to the SAE rating, not to mention the materials and layers are different between the hoses as well for intended duties.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
