Guys Im in the process of repalcing my fuel line from pump to filter to carb, what diameter line should I use?

I was going to use 6mm line, will this have any bearing on the amount of fuel getting to the carb ie too much/tooo little?

I keep forgetting. It is a 440 yes?

If so then 3/8-inch internal (9.5mm) line prefered.

Ah. See my memory?

Just keep the same internal diameter as the i.d. of the pump outlet.

But go a little bigger than 6mm so 6.5 or 7mm minimum. :wink2:
