Aaargh, noooo! Apart it next time, when
the boss white's set like rock .
And PTFE tape is cheap can back it off if you need and it'll still seal, unlike
PTFE.
One of those things you learn by experience.
Making a sort of cone shape.

Thanks Owelly!!
You've raised some very pipe through the car, not rubber hose.
The other choice is ptfe lined hose.
Of the car stinking of petrol.

I'm trying to get my car back together on a budget mainly using what parts I already have laying around in the garage.
One of those items is a new Glenns Performance sleeper tank with a -10 feed and a -8 return.
I don't have the stock fuel tank any longer...

In design, the Axe Rossi 6043 tuned pipe looks similar to the Hatori tuned pipe used.
Jorge Usually they use a tuned pipe coupler, which is a silicon rubber like tube or maybe Teflon PTFE diameter PTFE tube.

Cheers

Pure copper is just.
If you want perfectly formed bends, a small pipe bender is very cheap.

The home store will cut an thread in the end .
The black pipe is also probably cheaper.
Black 3/4" pipe cools the air, while plastic doesn't.
I like old time proven systems rather than new unproven ones .

Any help appreciated.
The pipe coming up to the cistern has a white plastic connector with a
