Velocita Rosso Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 When will sellers realise that 6mm bore is not 1/4" ? Our cars are and always will be imperial. There is always a difficulty in fitting 6mm bore as the fuel fixings are 1/4" and larger in diameter, not by much ,but enough. Tried using 6mm and it splits(with the modern rubbers). Going on Tebay..they advertise 1/4" with a 6mm in brackets......its either 1/4 or 6mm.....cant be both 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clive Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/254656405760 Problem solved. Assuming it is genuine Codan stuff, which is probable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but I wasn`t saying I couldn`t search and find anything.......the comment being most sellers are saying/quoting "6mm ...(1/4,)" which is incorrect, and wish they wouldnt do so. I will try your reccommendation 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
