I bought 7mm. Not sure if that was internal or external. It was a very tight fit but with some wiggling and spanner rash it fitted. Jubilee clip were then tightened and away I went :-)

I'm fairly certain that rubber hose is sold by internal diameter, hard pipes are sold by outer diameter.

7mm inner diameter sounds about right for rubber fuel hose. Just make sure it's pressure rated for fuel injection, as there is 'weaker' fuel hose intended for carby engine cars as this won't be up to the job.

Get some proper fuel hose clips too whilst you're at the motor factors :)

I have a feeling I remember being told that I purchased the last fuel pipes from Honda when I did mine!
