1/2 inch fuel line elbows

I am having a 'great' time trying to find find these. It seems to no one wants to make them. Could someone shove it me in a direction to find them, either order outright or special order. I'm fixing the dumbass' fun mistake of using coolant line in place of fuel line. Thanks for reading.

 

What type of connection? Barbed? Threaded? Not enough info in your post to determine exactly what you're looking for.

 

1/2 inch female 90 degree rubber fuel line elbow. visual aid for reference is 3/16 and too small

 

Thanks for the clarification. I don't think I've ever seen one of those. Maybe an auto parts store? They do seem to be a rare item. Can you just make do with a regular length of fuel line that bends?

 

With the space available regular fuel lines would kink and that would just SUCK ASS

 

Ya know those guys that know guys that know guys? I found 1 of those today and the elbows are getting custom made. Bonus is that it'll only take 4 half dozen cookies cookies of differing types to get them done. All very willingly made by my loving wife.

 

I can't understand why you would need a 1/2 inch fuel line, you building some type of drag bike?

 

nope. the VF500F was already gravity feed when i got it. It had a cooleant line where a fuel line should be. So i am rebuilding the fuel line system. coming off the petcock is 1/2 inch, it leads to a fuel filter that has both sides half inch, that leads to a Y that is 1/2 inch on 1 side 5/16 on the others. I got the 5/16 inch line easy. the space available to me, i think makes it necessary to use elbows to get everything in there. so 2 half inch fuel line elbows is what i am looking for. and last night i found them. thanks for all the help.

 

ok the guy that was the guy that the guy knew, looks like he flaked. back to the drawing board, and all the damn hose clamps on it. I think i've figured out a way to get it in but having issues with the routing of the line. I see on other threads that other vf owners have done it. my question is how the routed it. small space, and i'm using a fuel filter, just need from the petcock to the Y. any help would be appreciated. i may not use it but it will give me a place to start. thanks all

 

Thanks for all the votes of confidence. I've found other sites that seem like they are more travelled and posts are answered very quickly. Y'all have a great time

 

Wow, joined this month and threw a snit fit because he couldn't get the help he wanted. Maybe some people just want help and have no interest in being helpful too.

 

Biggest problem was he had no idea what he was doing, not in your wildest dreams would you need a half inch fuel line
