[peste noire]

does anyone know the size fittings for the fuel rail(dampener side)

im trying to make me one. was thinking about buying the one fron drift motion but im looking for a black one to match the rest of my other lines.

thanks ahead for the help.

The banjo bolts are M12x1.25

If you find black fittings let me know. I got mine from summit racing. They are Earl's brand labeled for mikuni carbs. Oddball size to find.

i think this might work and thanks veedubin!
and those are the black fitting, dont know if you might like them though.

 

[peste noire]

dont know if i should go with 4an or 6an size. is 4 too small or is 6an too big??

 

[veedubin]

Wow, I really feel like a dope. I never thought of looking on eBay when I bought mine..... Decent prices too.

As for sizing, I'm running -6 feed and return. The feed line is aeroquip SS Braid that I bought the ends for and had to make, and it's a good bit larger than the -6 pre-made SS braid lines that came with my AFPR. The regulator lines were bought from a member here a long time ago, I think they are the DM lines.

 

[peste noire]

and the 6 is working fine for you?

 

[veedubin]

Yup. Been running that for about 2 years.

then seems like im going 6 then.

if you have anything aside that youll like too add like if im missing something or will need another part let me know.

thanks again
veedubin!

 

[veedubin]

no prob.

only things i could add:

bypass the J tube, M12x1.25 fittings for both ends of fuel rail and the connection attached to motor mount (banjo fitting from factory) and set your afpr to factory specs.

 

[peste noire]

well i bought a afpr(used) and it came with feed and return but return looks long enough to skip the j tube.

That's the way mine is. I have the return straight to the line by the frame rail. J tube was bypassed completely.

[peste noire]

so i know exactly what im gonna do.
quick questing. you said to set the afpr to stock pressure, what would that be? 40 right?

 

[peste noire]

and by the way. theres a connection between the dampener and the fuel tank. is that one the m12x1.25 too?

I honestly don't remember off the top of my head right now. The MKIII TSRM is online, and has all that info.

and by the way. theres a connection between the dampener and the fuel tank. is that one the m12x1.25 too?

The connection you are talking about is the metal block bolted to the D/S engine mount. It has a banjo fitting on the top and bottom. That is as well M12x1.25

 

[peste noire]

that is the bolt im talking about, well more like a nut type.lol

you think 3 feet of line is enought to cover that? from the dampener to the where the red circle it at.

 

[peste noire]

or should i just put the line till were the first banjo bolt meets?

 

[veedubin]

I do not know what size the circled fitting is. I have my feed line start at the banjo fitting and go to the fuel rail. I had purchased 3' of line, and have 19" left over, so yes 3' is plenty.

 

[peste noire]

so 3 is too much.lol thanks

ahh so if i cant find the size by today ill just make it to where the banjo bolts goes to thanks alot veedubin!

The other option that is available, is to replace the entire line from pump to rail. You would need to modify things back at the pump a little (there are threads all over about doing that) But you would essentially eliminate any restrictions from the factory system. But, you will need a bit more than 3' of hose

If the winter goes well for me, that is one upgrade that will be done to mine. It's overkill in my case, but it never hurts. And now seeing that nice black hose you posted, it will be done in style ;D
