fuel hose psi?

[jaemil369]

I have to extend my fuel hose that goes from the fuel filter to fuel rail. I'm looking at the different hoses online and was wondering what kinda hose I should get? Any specs on one or help is appreciated. If your wondering,I have to extend it due to the banjo is on the drivers side on the f23 I'm dropping, thanks

you need to find out which F23 it is and google the F engine,, see what car it is on and then look up the fuel pressure for that car

You need fuel injection hose, it is rated for 250 psi. You cannot use regular fuel hose for fuel injection systems, it is only rated for 50 psi. The hose will have the psi rating printed on it.

You shouldn't see over 50psi stock. But I agree since it's the feed side of the fuel line either get new oem parts or the proper type hose.

You run the risk of the rubber line rupturing if the fuel pressure spikes. If you really need to save the 5 extra dollars you'd spend on FI hose, go ahead and buy the hose that is rated for only 10 psi more than the system's normal pressure. I wouldn't

You should just see if you can use a f22 fuel rail on your f23. When I did my h22 swap I ran the f22 rail (direct swap, no modification required) so I did not have to get a new line.

Yea theres a problem with the rails (I have other threads on it). They have FI hoses at advanced buy the foot that are rated at 110psi, would this be sufficient? I need to extend about 6-8ins for enough slack. Thanks

2 options to consider...
#1 buy a FI hose thats got fittings on it, I believe O'reillys makes them
#2 buy a fire extinguisher so you can escape when you burn your car cause a regular hose clamp came loose.
Just my opinion

Yea I was concerned about how I was going to connect them securely and safely enough. So o'reillys makes them with the proper fittings to connect the hoses or with the banjo fuel piece

My best recommendation, its way overkill, but you can have a custom hydrolic hose made for that length you need, with whatever connectors you may need on the ends. Good to 400 bar, or 5800psi.

I had one made for to use an aftermarket oil pressure sender.



^^ That hose was $24, its 2ft long, with 1/8" npt connectors.

[jaemil369]

Did you have to order that or was it local? Would they have the banjo fittings you think? (Not sure what they're called exactly)

[cloudasc]

It was made locally, Aeroquip was the name of the place here I got it from. I am not sure of all the available connectors, NPT (national pipe thread) connectors I believe are the standard, but wherever there is a will there is a way.
