Reply With QuoteAre you using worm drive hose clamps, or the stock spring clamps?. I've seen them leak with the stock ones.
adm fuel tank hose leaks
checked the index and couldnt see anything in regards to this.
Just wanted to know what size everybody is using on their fuel pump setup on adm tanks
AE86 ADM Tank
Problem:
running 8mm hose and it wont stop leaking no matter how nicely l tighten/have it sitting.
Leaks from the main fuel line at top of the tank.
any help would be awesome.

yeah, proper hose clamps yeah worm drive [with screw and thread track] same style you would use on radiator hoses but 7-12mm clamps
Seb
how loose is the hose on there with out clamps, is it nice and firm to get on or is it like a cock in a sock
keep adding clamps
not a cock sock, maybe a little bit tighter? lol.... but yeah more clamps i guess what size hose is everyone using ?
Seb
im using (ke) 5/16th i think it is (main) and 8mm (repco are fuktards and gave me 2 different sizes when i order )
Have you flared the end of the metal pipe before the rubber is put on?
no, l haven't. Dont really want to touch anything metal on the tank, its just a hose size problem. l'm using 8mm so im just going to try 5-6mm see how l go
