URGENT Fuel pipe to fuel rail connector

[jenic]

Quick one here.

The lower black o-ring on this connector has broken and come off, anyone got the dimensions of it to hand, or know if it can be bought from renault on its own?

Cheers
Mike

I could do with one as well

bet yours hasn't snapped, fallen off and now pisses fuel everywhere :rasp:

we had to push the car out of the garage to shut the door overnight lol

You can't buy the O-ring on its own, you have to buy a full section of pipe which is about £30.
It will seal providing the other o-ring you have is in tact, you just need to cable tie the fuel line to the rail.

disclaimer: this is only a temporary measure

Rip off b******s, The other one is ok but doesn't seal, not tried tie wraps though.

I'm going to raid work and my uncles tomorrow morning and take one of everything, then try and fix it in my dinner lol

Hi mate measure how big the o-ring is. I may have one on my van that will work for you If it's the same as the injectors then your in luck as I defenetly have a couple of them Measure and pm

It's a different size to the injectors. The Injector o ring is far more chubby.

I broke mine the other day. We salvaged one from a Peugeot power steering hose fixing lol
They perish easily but it should seal fine with just one! And just to confirm Renault defo only sell em as the whole pipe. I've googles but can't find the size anywhere.. Sorry

 

[jenic]

It only has one but will only seal with the cable tie, thanks for the tip

Managed to get a box of assorted ones so hopefully one in there, I would of measured my old one but being an idiot I dropped it

I have a spare bit of fuel pipe with the connector if it's the o-ring on there you mean?

Let me know how you get on. If not i'll take mine off and compare it. I go out to renaults alot that have had this problem. It's usually after a garage has done some work on it.

Thanks for the offers, managed to get the right size today

Hopefully the car will be fully fixed tomorrow morning
