Where is the place to get fuel tubing online? Who I used in the past is shut down. .

I just buy traxxas line. Think it's usually a 24" piece. I use so little of it that paying the premium they ask doesn't bug me much.

Then I know it's the right ID because I never know what to buy when I go with dubro or whatever generic brand on amazon/tower/amain/rcplanet.

Speaking of ID... If i remember right the typical id is 1/8"
Is that correct? I'm running the SH.28, I believe that is the size I used before.

 

[olds97_lss]

Yeah, 2mm or 3/32". My ruler isn't very good... I really need to get a micrometer.

Wouldn't suggest that here since you're in UK and he's in USA.
Here's Dubro, the major supplier of RC airplane parts and supplies. You can also check Ebay, but I couldn't vouch for the quality where I already know Dubro is the best.

I normally pick it up from the local hobby shop, if you don't have one near by you can get it pretty cheap on ebay and usually in bulk - just check out nitro rc fuel line.

Thank you all, got some tubing ordered.
Well see if 2 year old fuel will run. It may be 3 years old. I was going to get back in hobby then but...life happened again.
I have 2 gallons of 30%...stuff cost too much to not try it. I have 3 or 4 plugs still.
Gonna be fun getting this machine zippin around the school yard again.

I have ran old fuel ,as a matter of fact ,just recently ,but I didn't have that much!...LOL

It depends on how it was stored ,as long as it was stored in a cool place an not directly in sun light!
