my mate did the pipe split repair last week, when you get that part put the hose on first.

It's more 'IF' I get that part.

Have put a wanted advert up for an old duff pump ..... surely someone will have one

Paying £280 for a fuel pump for a couple of quid part just isn't exciting me much :wall:

Find someone / machine shop with a lathe. First turn the part with the O rings on but leave a large end where the elbow is. Drill and tap (1/8 BSP) and you can then screw a standard pipe nipple in.

If BSP tap not available then turn both parts out of brass and solder them together.

You might find someone at your local technical college can do it for a few £

If you go to a hydraulic or pneumatic fittings supplier the may be able to tap a hole in you existing fitting and screw a new elbow in.

A few years ago I made a similar fuel filter connector for my car as list price for part (a bit of pipe with banjo fitting) was £139 + VAT.

Did you manage to fix this ?

Not fixed yet .... have sent an e-mail to Bitron in Italy but not really expecting a reply. An engineer friend of mine with CNC machine has offered his services so it looks like thats the way I'm going to go .... reckon I might get a few spares done too .... just in case :wall:
