RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM Back on the road! - cully - 28-10-2015 (28-10-2015, 05:55 PM)Dum-Dum Wrote: Good to hear it goes well, a decent gain in power by the sounds of it then? ive fitted the lightened pulley and flywheel to this engine so effectively a power gain yes other than that it was built to standard spec with ACL main and bigend bearings one thing i am impressed with is the Castrol edge oill, on how it maintains the oil pressure even when the temp climbs, at all times i am getting 6.5bar above 4krpm i need to put that to test on some track work RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM Back on the road! - cully - 21-12-2015 car is still going well other than a fuel leak from the rubber hose on the fuel rail to which i replaced the rubber for now! ive started the process of replacing the rubber joints on the fuel line, im going to be fitting braided fuel lines, the main reason in doing this is to remove the 10 joints in the engine bay on the fuel line flow and return. I am going to be replacing them with AN6 aeroquip type fittings and stainless braid ptfe 8mm fuel lines to start off ive bought some weld on AN6 fittings to fit these i have cut the rail end off and drilled the fitting to the same size as the rail tube I then silver soldered the fitting to the rail 2nd fitting soldered I had to clean up the rail and what better way of stripping the rust paint and crud Electrolisis.... 12 hours later and a quick wire brush now for some paint 1 coat of galvanise primer 1 coat of primer few coats of black more to come.......... RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Eeyore - 21-12-2015 ffs.... make me an electrolysis setup. Everything always looks so good afterwards! RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - welshpug - 21-12-2015 It's just a plastic box a battery charger and some scrap metal for the anodes, and some washing soda and water. RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-12-2015 exactly that im using a tall bucket soda crystals and a battery charger + terminal clipped to some mild steel plate - terminal clipped to the piece needing cleaning dont use or try to clean Aluminium parts RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-12-2015 coat of primer.... RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-12-2015 fuel line parts ordered... 2 X AN6 weld on steel fitting 4 X AN6 BLACK 45 Degree Swivel TEFLON PTFE Fuel Oil Braided Hose Fitting 1 X mtr AN6 5/16" 8MM Stainless Steel Braided TEFLON PTFE Fuel Hose 2 X AN6 to 5/16" 7MM - 8MM BLACK PUSH ON BARB Straight Hose Fitting Adapter 1 X AN6 15mm RED HOSE END FINISHER 1 X AN6 15mm BLACK HOSE END FINISHER RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-12-2015 with the top coat of black RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - welshpug - 21-12-2015 where are the two hose fiishers going? RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-12-2015 they will be used over the barb fittings into the std plastic lines two colours for flow/return identification RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - ozonehostile - 22-12-2015 Nice work cully! RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 22-12-2015 Hmmm........ the 2 X AN6 to 5/16" 7MM - 8MM BLACK PUSH ON BARB Straight Hose Fitting Adapters are the wrong size for the plastic hardlines have to try a different size Bum! RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - welshpug - 22-12-2015 I think you'll be converting to 8mm metal lines and using a pair of an-6 to 8mm compression fittings... RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 22-12-2015 i dont really want to go down that route but its an option if this route fails, i want to use the std plastic hardlines from back to front and pick up on the inerwing RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 06-01-2016 i seem to be having an issue in finding fittings that fit the peugeot Plastic fuel hard line, it turns out the peugeot pipe is measured 8mm outside diameter when all pipe fittings are measured by there internal bore diameter there are no AN6 barb fittings available for the peugeot 6.5mm internal bore pipe! the 2 X AN6 7MM - 8MM PUSH ON BARB where to big to go into the pipe i bought some AN6 6mm barbs these were to small and i cant find anywhere a barb fitting between these two sizes so........... i have taken the AN6 7-8mm fittings and turned them down in a lath to make them 6-7mm RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Dum-Dum - 06-01-2016 Sounds like an utter ballache. RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - welshpug - 07-01-2016 that's why I have 8mm o.d metal pipe under my ZX with a pair of compression fittings on the bulkhead. RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Toms306 - 07-01-2016 Is it worth the hassle? Surely new standard pipes would last another 10 years or so? RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Piggy - 07-01-2016 Can you warm up the piping to stretch it over the AN barbed fittings?

Definitely possible as I've done it before although advisable to only do it in boiling water rather than with fire.

I'am looking at inserts and compression olive fittings for the plastic hardline now RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Jonny81191 - 09-01-2016 Heat gun would do the job, no? RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 09-01-2016 yes im sure but would you trust a barb fitting you fecked with at 50-60-70psi with petrol running though the joint near a hot exhaust manifold ?

There was alot of brute force involved but everyone loves stuffing a fat barb up a tight pipe.
