    I'm having a very difficult time finding this size hose that is fuel injection rated. Trutlands would have to get it out of Europe. Ricambi doesn't list it as available. This is for the hose that goes from the fuel tank to the fuel pump on a 328. Any suggestions?

    Richard,

    You're overthinking this hose application...
    This is a supply line. There is no pressure on the hose. Any quality Gates, Goodyear or Dayco 5/8" (16mm) fuel-rated hose will do.

    Regards,
    David

    I was beginning to wonder. I have a habit of doing that...overthinking.

    Thanks.

    Being an Engineer for me, it's very easy to do.

    I just finished a 328 major service last week...and went through the same thought process. I "stock" nearly 20 different sizes and applications of hoses. I started to wonder why don't I have this particular (328) hose?

    Long story, short-I did.

    Onward,
    David

    I purchased 5/8 in hose (marine grade) for my 328. Now I just need to stop driving it.
