Hi,
When removing my tank today, I noticed that there was a small rip in one of the fuel lines. This is the very short hose that runs from the petcock to the inline fuel filter.
Firstly, is this fuel filter stock? Or did the previous owner throw something aftermarket on here?
Second, I measured this broken hose to be 1/4" ID, 1/2" OD, though it's hard to be sure with flexible tubing. The question is, can I just go buy any generic tubing with these dimensions from a hardware store to replace it? It is a very small length, maybe 5 inches. Or is there some special type I need?
And finally: is there an easy/good way to remove these darn hose clamps? I think my attempt at removing it may have caused the tear in the first place.
Thanks in advance!
