copemech Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Cheers Copey, Might aswell ask now... You found any for yourself that doesn't deteriorate as fast as the stuff on ebay? Well, yes! The Tygon F-4040 is a premium fuel hose. You can look it up. It is great stuff and lasts a long time while staying flexable, yet it will not tolerate direct contact with the exhaust muff on a Sherco, so proper routing is key. If you cannot find it, I can post you a sample for a fiver! no profit here. Popular in the lawnmower shops as well, so ck them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks good stuff, I'm always having to try cut my other stuff off my petcock, it goes solid after a few hours of contact with the fuel! Cant find any for purchase online though...

Doubt you will have that problem with this stuff. Seems to stay good for about two years or more. Costs me right at $2.00 per foot with the tax, enough to do 2 Shercos as I recall. Then add the package and the post to UK. Then paypal fees! So at the current exchange rates, I think 5 british pounds will get you about 1/2 meter, or 2 1/2 feet, enough for 3 or 4 bikes worth.

shercoman2k8 Posted July 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'm gonna throw this out here... fed up of paypal sellers fee's? Send the money as a gift, click personal, personal gift and send the money, as it's not for a product there are no sellers fee's! Just handy to keep in mind!

Send the money as a gift, click personal, personal gift and send the money, as it's not for a product there are no sellers fee's! Just handy to keep in mind! There are no auction fees, yet still a transaction fee! I should charge you for the special trip to the post office! Only takes an hour out of my day! I can send you more if you like, at $2 per ft. and you can re-hose everyone you know! You missed the joke on the lengths, your math sucks!
