Hi every one
I just wanted to know what size fuel pipe I should be using on my 3.5 on carbs.
At the min I have rubber pipe from the tank to the carbs but I want to use metal or copper but want to know what's is the best diameter to use.
Many thanks nick

I'm fairly sure I replaced mine with 3/8" rubber.

Leave it rubber, why not?

8mm would be sweet though...

Metal pipe will conduct more heat to the fuel.

Better off fitting hi temp sleeve to the existing pipe...
