Fuel Hose for Motorcycle, Scooter

The fuel hose is an essential part for supplying fuel to motorcycles and scooters. Its role is to transport gasoline from the tank to the carburetor or injectors safely and efficiently.

Fuel hoses are made of materials resistant to corrosion and gasoline, such as rubber or polyethylene. They have high mechanical resistance to withstand engine vibrations and system pressure.

Depending on the inner diameter, fuel hoses are classified into:

Fuel hoses with an inner diameter of 4 mm - are generally used on motorcycles and scooters with small engines.
Fuel hoses with an inner diameter of 5 mm - are generally used on motorcycles and scooters with medium engines.
Fuel hoses with an inner diameter of 6 mm - are generally used on motorcycles and scooters with large engines.
Depending on the length of the hose, it can be:

Short fuel hose - has a length of up to 1 meter.
Long fuel hose - has a length of over 1 meter.
Fuel hoses can be sold in rolls of different lengths, from 5 meters to 20 meters.

Choosing the right fuel hose

When choosing the right fuel hose, the following aspects must be considered:

The inner diameter of the hose must be compatible with the outer diameter of the connections at the tank and at the carburetor or injectors.
The material from which the hose is made must be resistant to corrosion and gasoline.
The length of the hose must be sufficient to connect the tank to the carburetor or injectors.
Replacing the fuel hose

The fuel hose must be replaced periodically, depending on its wear. Usually, the fuel hose should be replaced every 2-3 years, or more often if it shows cracks or damage.

Replacing the fuel hose is a simple operation that can be performed by anyone with minimal technical knowledge. Here is an instruction for replacing the fuel hose:

Stop the engine and let it cool down.
Disconnect the old hose from the tank and from the carburetor or injectors.
Insert the end of the new hose into the tank fitting.
Insert the end of the new hose into the carburetor or injector fitting.
Connect the new hose with fixing clamps.
Before connecting the new hose, make sure it is clean and dry. It is also important not to overstress the new hose to avoid damaging it.
