I am to replace the fuel line. What diameter is it? Also... Is anyone using fuel filters? If so, which one?
The fuel line is under pressure from the pump. You don't want to just clamps any old fuel line on there, or you'll risk leaks, which is a serious problem. I also seem to recall that the line has several bends preformed in the line to route it around obstacles when the tank is lowered. For these same reasons I would not attempt to install a fuel filter inline.I am to replace the fuel line. What diameter is it? Also... Is anyone using fuel filters? If so, which one?
Whoa. :huh:hang on... is no. 19 a fuel filter?
Instead of zooming in on pictures...why don't you read what the number says the part is from the fiche and tell us what the part is? :glare:oops... let's try again...
Ahhh...that makes a little more sense now. I think the OP is trying to wish a fuel filter onto the platform.Item #18 is labeled as "filter", but it seems to be an aux air filter on one of the vacuum lines coming from the airbox.

Like what color the bike is????Sheesh! Another guy fixing something that ain't broke.. :blink:
If you have "gunk" accumulating in your fuel because you park your bike over the winter, you have bigger problems than wether or not you have a fuel filter. Tons of FJRs with over 100k miles on them, and none of them ever messed with the fuel delivery system. If you properly winterize your bike, you shouldn't have any worries.Hi Fred,
After watching one of those Gearz episodes inspeed channel, it got me thinking re why motorcycles do not have fuel filters? Some cars have even two (prefilter and a filter before and after the fuel pump to filter out (or at least help) all the gunk that the petrol has, particularly when I do not ride everyday anymore and my bike stays in bed during the long and cold (not so much this year) winter (I put preservative in the fuel before putting the bike to bed). For what you are saying... no, no...do not bother...
Cheers
