Is this fuel pipe ok?

Post by Brickhouse »

Some of you may remember I had a diesel leak a few eeks ago. Karl told me where to look and sure enough the metal fuel pipe had a slight split in it. When I moved the metal pipe it broke. I did a temp fix of using some boost pipe I had left over, think it is 5 or 6 mm. It has been fine so far but on a long term basis will it be ok to carry on using this boost hose or do I need to buy some diesel hose?

This is what the boost hose was originally purchased to do..............
