KV6 front fuel line
 
Hi folks,

I'm after the front most fuel pipe that connects from the fuel filter to the fuel rail on a ZS 180. Anyone got one?

Mine is very awkward to reseat after its been disturbed, and takes a lot of fiddling before it'll stop weeping fuel. I'm hoping another fuel pipe will sort it! Tried looking new, but nothing on Rimmers.

Thanks

Will have a look next time I go for a fag ;)

Mind your fag doesn't set it alight :blink:

I think this the one you want, from the fuel filter, and the flexible pipe attaches to it

That would be great, if you could

Pete, didn't spot that - thats the pipe that runs from the fuel filter to the pipe that I need. All these bloody pipes! The part I need is WJH105330, number 1 on the following:

http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GRID003513

Its the one that plugs directly in to the fuel rail. It's that junction that is always bleeding weeping, it takes a lot of fiddling to get it to sit right, and Im hoping its the pipe rather than the fuel rail that needs replacing.

Its been disturbed a fair few times now, for the thermostat, the clutch kit and now to replace the manifold and the vis motors - and I've just bleeding broken the balance VIS - AARRRGGHH. It had a burnt out track, I replaced the wires, plugged it back in, let it home, and then I attached it back to the plenum and flap. Only I didn't think to check whether the flap should be open or closed. D'oh. The flap was closed, and it looks like its burnt out two more tracks trying to close a flap that was already closed. I read somewhere that the motors were good for pulling a couple of amps, hence the burnt tracks.
Anyway, I rewired those, plugged it back in to home and the motor starts smoking. Im just hoping I haven't damaged anything further up the wires. Got to get a new one of them now, too

As the car stands, its now sat in the garage with the battery disconnected, a gutted balance motor (I didn't like the smoking part!) and it dripping petrol (now occasionally as I spent a fair few tense minutes trying to stop the torrent of petrol).
Joys of now classic car ownership, eh?

Oh, I don't know?

Apparently the same part was only on the MGF and the earlier one at that.

The later F had a different part which Rimmers have at £4.14, might be worth a try.

Sorry, my post is passed on Petes part number, the one Calid lists is only for the 45/ZS V6.
