Pipe Clips
kendo - 8/5/07 at 07:54 AM

This might be a dumb question but I'm starting to get brain fade!

I'm looking for guidance on choosing the best sort of pipe clips (jubilee etc.) .

Whats best / £? Also are there any restrictions on what can be used and where? i.e fuel, brake, coolant

Help! so many clips, so little money (especially after the trip to Stoneleigh!)

I wouldn't use Jubilee clips on fuel pipe , get the correct clips . Jubilees are OK on coolant hoses which tend to be thicker walled.

Some people have failed sva for using jubilee clips on fuel hoses. Get the proper clips, available from ebay and several suppliers.

For everything else use jubilee clips, i prefer stainless ones as they look nice, other than that it doesnt really matter what they are.
