Fuel lines?????

I am looking to replace the fuel lines running from injector to injector. I am having a hard time finding the braided stuff locally. Fastlane offers many choices. Does anyone know what size I need. (3mm,2.5mm...??????)
Thanks

Since you're buying from the site, you can feel justified in bothering Phil for the answer. Click on the Partsshop button at the top of the page and ask your question of the parts expert.

Finding hose.

vwbuge,

I always go down to my local VW hot rod shop to find the diesel fuel return hose for my MBZ. They always have it, can't seem to find it anywhere else easily.

Ben,

Any MB dealership has it. You're not to far from an MB dealer anywhere in the Bay Area. $10/meter might at Smythe might scare you away, though.
