E10-Compatible Classic Car Fuel Hose
Stevson Motors supplies E10-compatible fuel hose for classic and vintage vehicles, available by the metre in plain rubber and stainless-steel overbraided finishes.
Our loose fuel-hose range covers popular imperial and metric-equivalent sizes, including 1/4″ (6mm), 5/16″ (8mm) and 3/8″ (10mm). We also manufacture and supply vehicle-specific fuel hoses, feed pipes and complete hose kits for selected Austin Healey, Jaguar, MG and Mini models.
Whether you need a length of hose for a repair or a ready-made assembly for a particular classic car, check the size, fuel compatibility and intended application carefully before ordering.
Fuel Hose Suitable for Modern E10 Petrol
E10 petrol contains up to 10% renewable ethanol. Older fuel-hose materials may not have been designed for prolonged exposure to ethanol-blended fuel, making the hose specification particularly important when maintaining a classic vehicle.
The loose fuel hoses currently listed by Stevson Motors are described as E10-grade compliant. This includes selected plain-rubber and stainless-steel overbraided products.
Customers should still confirm the complete product specification and intended application before purchase. Fuel hose intended for a carburettor system should not automatically be assumed suitable for a high-pressure fuel-injection system.
Cohline Fuel Hose for Classic Cars
Stevson Motors supplies fuel hose manufactured by Cohline of Germany, a specialist manufacturer of automotive hose and pipe systems.
Our Cohline range is selected to provide modern fuel compatibility while meeting the practical requirements of classic and vintage vehicle fuel systems.
The service page should display the manufacturer’s product code and relevant hose standard for every product. This gives customers more useful information than a general compliance claim and helps them confirm whether a hose is suitable for their vehicle.
Plain Rubber Fuel Hose
Plain rubber fuel hose provides a clean, straightforward appearance and makes it easier to inspect the visible outer surface during routine maintenance.
Stevson Motors currently lists plain rubber fuel hose in:
- 1/4″ internal diameter
- 5/16″ internal diameter
- 3/8″ internal diameter
Metric-equivalent searches commonly used for these products include 6mm, 8mm and 10mm fuel hose.
The precise internal and external diameter should be checked on the individual product page before ordering.
Stainless-Steel Overbraided Fuel Hose
Stainless-steel overbraided fuel hose provides an additional external covering around the rubber hose. It is frequently chosen for classic-car restorations, engine-bay installations and applications where added external protection or a braided appearance is preferred.
Current sizes include:
- 1/4″ stainless-steel overbraided fuel hose
- 5/16″ stainless-steel overbraided fuel hose
- 3/8″ stainless-steel overbraided fuel hose
Braided hose should still be inspected and replaced according to its condition and the manufacturer’s guidance. The braid can make the rubber beneath less visible, so customers should not judge its condition from the external finish alone.
Fuel Hose Sizes Available
| Imperial size | Approximate metric equivalent | Available finishes |
|---|---|---|
| 1/4″ | 6mm | Plain rubber and stainless overbraid |
| 5/16″ | 8mm | Plain rubber and stainless overbraid |
| 3/8″ | 10mm | Plain rubber and stainless overbraid |
The table should be checked against the manufacturer’s precise internal-diameter specifications before publication.
Other sizes may be available on request. Contact Stevson Motors if the size needed for your vehicle is not shown online.
Fuel Hose Sold by the Metre
Our loose fuel hose is sold by the metre, making it suitable for individual repairs, restoration work and workshop use.
When ordering more than one metre, the website should state whether the hose will normally be supplied as one continuous length. Customers requiring a specific uninterrupted length should confirm this before placing an order.
Vehicle-Specific Fuel Hoses and Kits
Alongside loose hose, Stevson Motors supplies ready-made fuel hoses, feed pipes and kits for selected classic vehicles.
The current range includes applications for:
- Austin Healey BN1, BN2, BN4, BN6, BN7, BT7 and BJ8
- Jaguar Mk II and V8 models
- Jaguar E-Type Series III V12
- Jaguar XK150 S
- MG TC, TD and TF
- MGA
- MGB
- Mini Cooper
- Mini Cooper S
Available assemblies include pump-to-carburettor hoses, filter-to-carburettor feed pipes, connections between carburettors and complete vehicle-specific fuel-hose kits.
Always check the vehicle model, variant, carburettor arrangement and product description before ordering.
Choosing the Correct Fuel Hose
Before selecting a replacement hose, confirm:
- Vehicle make, model and year
- Carburettor or fuel-injection system
- Fuel type
- Required internal diameter
- Required length
- Operating pressure
- Manufacturer’s hose specification
- Connection and fitting type
- Routing and minimum bend requirements
- Plain or overbraided finish
Do not select fuel hose based only on its external appearance. A hose with the wrong internal diameter or specification may not provide a suitable connection.
If you are unsure, contact Stevson Motors with the vehicle details, existing hose measurements and clear photographs of the connection points.
