What is the best material and fuel line brand to run?

What is the correct size fuel line from a pingel valve to the main line of a PWK?

What size are the over flow lines?

And lastly do you guys run the little clamps or do you guys run the fuel lines straight as-is?
 
The pingle I have has an outlet that is the same size as the inlet on my pwk. I believe it is 5/16" or 3/8", I would have to check when I get home from work. Either way, I didn't need to call anyone to buy what I needed. I got on Amazon and searched for fuel line. I also do not use the clamps as the hose fits very snug.

As Matuus stated; OEM lines are the 'Best IMO. Let's wade through the misinformation and answer the question Why...?

Honda OEM Fuel Line, either Grey or Black has a 7MM (.280" x .480") I.D. x 12MM O.D., fairly large and Best matched to the OEM Carb Fuel Bard size, as well the Pingel Fuel barb Inlet of 1/4" (.250") I.D. x 5/16" (.312") O.D.

Honda or Kehein or Mikuni Vent Lines are custom Metric sizes, basically 3.75MM I.D. x 7MM O.D.; again Best matched to the Kehein, Mikuni (OEM) carbs.

You can buy aftermarket Fuel Line & Vent Lines, However; they will either be Big or Small in size....again; Best to stick to OEM lines as Matuus correctly stated.

BDT stocks all the Honda Fuel & Vent Lines, sold by the foot, even all the OEM clips to attached correctly...see picture. BDT also stocks the complete OEM, Kehein & Mikuni Vent Lines in sets, ready to attach to the carburetor....something even Amazon does NOT sell....:)

Yeah sure, Amazon doesn't have the vent line sets, but Ebay does and so does Jets R us. They also have carburetor parts, complete carburetors, and the correct hose clamps. My pingle has a 3/8" (.375) outlet so I used hose rated for fuel with 3/8" (.375) ID. Not all pingel petcocks have the same inlet and outlet. I don't know how that can be construed as misinformation.

Buy 1/4" ID TYGON fuel line and be done with it. Plenty big, there is now way it can starv your carb.

I alway used that on my 35mm and 39mm carbs.

I buy 10' long at time.
