When I say Both I meant they were both same thickness as number 3 on photo, they are connected separate same as yours.

Just about got things set up now for fuel lines. For the tank end will just push tube over pipes and use fuel clamps. But for FIP and Lift Pump think I need a couple of these unions in photo, does anyone know part number for them as I cant find it anywhere ?
Or is there another way to fit bare tube on to FIP connection circled on photo.??

Was just wondering if it will push past the olive as theres not much room in front of it to get tube on.

youd remove olive and nut and use a short rubber hose and a push fit similar to below to join to plastic pipe

Think it should, theres one to go on FIP, and one for Lift Pump, one is slightly wider then the other but think both will push on pipe.
They both go back to Tank but I am short of about a foot of tube on one of them in photo, so might have join on to a bit of rubber pipe to reach to Sender. would something like these do https://www.halfords.com/workshop-t.../halfords-hose-connectors-straight-8mm-hfx371

Got some rubber fuel pipe from Halfords today and temporary fitted fuel lines, not tightened anything up first till I get someone to check it, I used the union I had to connect to the Lift Pump. the rest I used the rubber hose and clips, just got one more to do on the FIP Needs a couple of fuel clips on,. Ordered some double clips to hold lines down the Chassis.
Think I've got it Right, If anyone spots any mistakes please let me know.

Put a small section of clear pipe in the line, in the engine bay. It’s a precaution more than anything.
Ask @nobber about using the clear on the return/leakback lines. It’s had me thinking since I read his post. This will be a lot better than mine, and shouldn’t risk introducing an extra air leak before the injectors.

Yes Mate I forgot about that bit.Will get some before I tighten everything up.
Hope you get sorted with yours, They can be a Nightmare at times.

I will get it sorted and back on the road. I just need some time to get back on level terms with it.
