#1 Plastic fuel pipe

Post by Monkeyfinger » Mon Jul 11, 2016 7:12 pm

Does anyone know a good source of the original style hard plastic fuel transfer pipes used on the series 2? I know I could use braided flexible pipe but I want to keep original if possible.

Great...I want to try with just the pipe. I think I should be looking for semi rigid nylon but perhaps someone will confirm

New pipe duly delivered - fitted my banjos and I now have a nice set of pipes fitted as original spec. Thanks for the input all.

"I now have a nice set of pipes fitted as original spec."

Can you hit the high note now in "Unchained Melody"? :lol:
