Subject:      Fuel hose - what kind do I need?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


In tracing the problem on my '88 Westy's hesitation, I took the
connector off the distributor that goes to the hall sensor - I noticed
that inside was oily, so I was cleaning that out when I was spritzed by
gasoline. Seems that the wiring for the connector passes under a hose
that feeds the driver's side fuel rail - and moving the wire moved the
hose enough that it showed that it has a small leak.


I'm glad I found this rather than having a flaming Westy on the freeway.
I went to the dealer who did not stock the hose. Can I find this at a
regular auto supply store? Does anyone know what I look for?


thanks


Todd
'88 Westy
