Title: Fuel line
Post by: Gardenome on March 15, 2017, 07:29 PM
Cracked nut finally failed. Any chance someone is sitting on a spare I can have/borrow till a new one arrives? Would love to have this drivable for this weekend.

It's the line from the sediment bowl to the fuel pump.

780-289-0620

Fingers crossed.

Do you have the part number? A reference using lrseries.com might show the models it was used on that locals have donors for.

Have you removed the offending fuel line? Greggs here in GP can build new brake, and hydraulic lines, but they may choke on a british thread, for example. I don't know who could make you a new one in a hurry.  It might not be that expensive.

It looks like it may be threaded into an adapter in the photo, perhaps you could mate to that other size. I wouldn't risk removing any more than I had to on a vintage vehicle though.

Can't quite tell from the photo, but it looks suspiciously like and air brake tubing compression fitting.

240207 is the part number.

Looks pretty age specific as per craddocks.

Borrowed some parts from a neighbor and the line is now complete so the pump decided to stop working.

Not looking for anything yet, just letting you all know.

Contacts cleaned in pump. Working again. Oil pressure light on now. Never ends despite never going anywhere.

One of the worst things for a vehicle is having it sit. Hopefully you'll have better luck on the road. Sounds like every area has had a "roverhaul" by now. A series 1 commissioning isn't for the faint of heart, you took on lots here. Good luck on the weekend.
