Default Banjo size?


My fuel line from the fuel rail to the firewall filter won't work. The difference between the b18a1 (my '90 Integra LS), and the b18c I'm putting is now the pulsation dampner is on the end instead of the top. So that line, from either engine will reach the filter.

I have to make one.

The 12mm banjo above will fit on the end of my fuel rail, but the line size is -3an. Just use adapters for bigger line, or piece together -an6 and grind off the tabs on the fuel rail?

Then there's the filter side too. I want to use the oem style wix filter I purchased....

Suggestions?

Russell makes Banjo -> 6AN straight fittings for both the OE fuel filter end and the Pulse dampener fuel rail end. (Without a pulse dampener on the fuel rail, you would use 2 of the fuel filter type Banjo adapters... say for a '96-00 Civic fuel rail.) Blue and Black are available.

Russell part numbers are 640913 for the fuel filter end (Banjo bolt with a hole drilled through the middle OR fuel rail inlet end with a hole drilled through the middle) and 640923 for the fuel rail with the pulse dampener (NO hole drilled through the middle of the inlet). These are the BLACK part numbers matching what you have pictured above with the 6AN male end.

Thanks. That sends me in the right direction. I do want the pulsation damper and oem firewall filter..

I can use that (640923) one with the damper without grinding the tabs off the end of the fuel rail?

...get a 90 degree fitting for that end?

Default Re: Banjo size?

The Banjo fittings I referenced are straight. This would mean that the bent fitting needed would have to be on the hose end. So if a 90' bend is what is required/preferred, then the hose end would be a 6AN 90' fitting. Modifying the fuel rail is not necessary as far as I know. If you are still using the DA fuel rail, you MAY have to open up the gap between the tabs but I do not think you have to remove them completely. The aluminum Banjo fitting may be wider than the steel hose end on the OE fuel feed line.

This is good and I've ordered the parts. Thanks
I'll ask one other question here.

In the '90 Teg the speed sensor on the trans has 2 lines connected from the power steering gear box. They are so the power steering changes depending on the speed you're driving. I had to cut these lines pulling the engine. The speed sensor wouldn't come out. I got it out with some difficulty after the engine was out.....to put in the Y80 trans. I'm keeping my power steering.

The issue is, I can't find out what kind of lines they are. The 1/4 in. had steel braiding embedded in the line, but the other larger 5/16s line didn't. I found a steel embedded line for the 1/4" and it barely bends enough to attach to the vss sensor. The 5/16 line I got has steel embedded too, but won't bend enough to attach to the vss sensor. What I took off of that line was more like fuel line. It cut easily.

Any ideas on what type of line I need for this.
Thanks!!!!

Well napa suggested transmission line for the second line on the vss speed sensor. I think I'll try that.

I was using aircraft shears to cut those lines...for the reach. The 1/4" line had steel in it. The second 5/16" line cut like butter. I was surprised at the difference. It was there for 30 years, so that line much be very low pressure.
