FAQs

What material is the Gates MFL1080 fuel hose made from?

The hose is constructed from NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber), known for its excellent resistance to fuels and oils.

What are the main dimensions of this hose?

The hose has an inner diameter of 14 mm, an outer diameter of 22 mm, and a length of 60 mm.

Is this a universal fuel hose?

No, this is a moulded fuel overflow hose designed for specific vehicle applications. It is essential to check compatibility using the vehicle make/model tool or by contacting customer support.

What OEM part numbers does this hose cross-reference with?

It cross-references with several OEM numbers, including CITROËN: 1574HL, FIAT: 9659113480, and FORD: 1708234, among others.

Does this hose come with clamps?

The product information does not specify if clamps are included. Typically, fuel hoses are sold separately from clamps, which should be reused from the old hose if in good condition or purchased separately.

How should I clean the fuel hose?

The hose can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents or petroleum-based cleaners directly on the rubber, as this could degrade the material.

What is the warranty period for this part?

Warranty information is typically provided by the seller. Please refer to the seller's specific warranty policy for details on the Gates MFL1080.

Troubleshooting

Hose does not fit securely.

Double-check that you have selected the correct part number for your vehicle's make and model. Ensure the connection ports on the vehicle are clean and free from debris. Verify the inner diameter matches the fitting.

Fuel leak detected after installation.

Re-inspect the connections at both ends of the hose. Ensure clamps (if applicable, though not included with this part) are tightened appropriately and that the hose is fully seated on the fittings. Verify the hose is not damaged.

Hose appears to be swelling or degrading prematurely.

Confirm that the fuel type used in the vehicle is compatible with NBR rubber. While NBR offers broad resistance, certain specialized fuels or additives might require different materials. Contact customer support if the issue persists.
