Found all of the brake fittings in boxes, bought new lines abs hoses.

removed drivers side wheel to fix flat only to notice I had leaking fuel from tank pipe to pump. replaced with halfrauds fuel line. then noticed leak from fuel pump rubber hose to metal pipe that leads to carb so replaced that and also the rubber pipe that goes from that metal line to the carb.
wouldn't it be better just to have one braided hose from fuel pump to carb? seems to be alot of connections to worry about. .

Great drive out and about in the Cotswolds after getting the car back on the road!

In my experience with braided fuel hose you then have three metres of potential leaks.Better quality hose may be available but with so much fakery?Just my experience.Steve..

wouldn't use it from back to front, just thinking about using it in the engine bay to eliminate 4 joins

Fitted a new rear light assembly purchased from Minispares, as the original had a cracked casing, I was dissapointed to discover the new light assembly did not come with a plug fitted only 4 through crimps, so a straightforward job (other than removing the fuel tank) required me to carefully remove the plug and connectors from the old light and fit it to the new one.
