What size are the fuel lines on a standard carb model. Delivery (steel pipe to pump to carb) and the significantly smaller return pipe? I have a leak either on the pipe into the pump or the return from the carb, most likely the former.

Neil, the inlet pipe is ~ 7.5 mm O.D (6.5 mm I.D.) and the return is ~ 5 mm O.D. and 4 mm I.D.

That's the best estimate at measuring them in my garage this morning.

Regards,

Thanks, the larger pipe is pretty common and easy to get hold of but I could only find one UK seller of smaller diameter braided pipe with ID of 3.5mm, which I've ordered - as the leak seems to have been intermittent the return pipe is now prime suspect.
