No Cigar Hose on a 603?

Hi Guys,
while adjusting the bowden cable on the SDL last night, I noticed 2 things.

1. The return hose from the IP to the hose that runs to the tank is seeping and VERY spongy.

2. its not a cigar hose!

So other than the braided return lines, are all the other rubber fuel hoses under the hood the same diameter?

Pretty much.

Be gentle with the hoses that connect to the fuel distributor. The fuel distributor fittings are brittle plastic. You can get replacement parts of the fuel distributor if something goes wrong.

Also be careful with the plastic lines around the IP.

But the injector return line is the same. I think the other was 5/16"

Evenings are best. I have to work on some of the rent houses for the next four days, boy do I love the heat!

I get to build a fence, go through a lawn, cut down some tree branches, and paint a kitchen

I believe we have the same engine but different body if you'd like to take a look at mine for reference.
