The angle is nearer 60 degrees so I am not sure it would work.  It would 
be nice if it did.

I have seen an aluminium tube 45 degree solution on eBay at item number 
300735817645 for less than =C2=A320. May be suitable.

Dave, a nice solution, but for those who haven't got a tame aluminium 
welder it might be cheaper to buy a flurosilicone lined angled fuel 
filler hose from carbuildersolutions.com and use a straight section of 
alloy tubing to make up the necessary length. Regards, David, G-XSDJ

Best solution is to use short silicone joints to an aluminium elbow, 
it's much lighter and the silicone is less problematic regarding erosion 
etc.

Tim Ward organised a batch of nice elbows but that was years ago.

It wouldn't be difficult to weld one up?

Hi Ivor


Been looking for hose for a standard mod to replace the classic pipe 
with aluminium.  The only hose we have found so far that is guaranteed 
100% for petrol is Samco ProFuel. Unfortunately it is on a 42 day lead 
time.
