Thread: Flare type on MFI hard fuel lines?

    Flare type on MFI hard fuel lines?

    Hi,

    in the process building a MFI-pump test setup I was wondering what the type of flare on the (hard) fuel lines between injector and pump are?
    Are they of a special type/name and what are the tools to make them if it is not the standard type of brake line flare set?l
    They do not look like any of the brake line flare/flanges I am familiar with.

    Thanks,
    Bart

    It’s a double flare . I replicate them with my Hazet flare tool but others will work as well.

    Hi,

    thanks for the quick answer!
    I do not like to be stubbern but looking at the fuel line see picture it seems that the part touching theinjector or going into the MFI fuel pump has a bigger (longer contact surface) see pictures
    first picture MFI fuel line
    second picture brake line flares bothe DIN & SAE

    regards,

    The mfi metric line has a bigger Dìa. and a thicker wall thickness than brakeline matl. It will form up with the proper tooling. I make the lines for my Bosch mfi test bench.
