Hi Guys and Gals,
Hopefully ill be doing my engine swap this weekend but on removing the old engine connections, tubes, hoses etc some of them are deteriorated and have snapped ( I.e. rubber connections going from fuel filter to carb, breather hose etc ?
Also, the little spring type clips which secure the various hoses are rusty and not doing their job so need replacing while im on with the engine.
Anyone know the best place to source these and what the official name is for the little metal sping clips is ?
Cheers Tone

Hi,
They are called hose clamps. Plenty of distributors found by Google.

Cheers Tone replace them with the apropriate fuel clamps like these, but many more on ebay, if you search for fuel clamps, or clips cgi.ebay.co.uk/Petrol-fuel-line-brake-line-clamps-15mm_W0QQitemZ330299128813QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Motorcycle_Parts?hash=item4ce75cbbed&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
