Fuel Supply Hose

Fuel Supply Hose

Fuel supply hose for go karts, connecting the tank to the carburettor or fuel pump. It is resistant to petrol and flexible enough to be routed safely away from hot and moving parts.

A leak-free fuel system

The fuel system of a kart includes the tank, the cap, the fittings, the hoses and the filter. Every connection must be tight and every hose free of cracks, because petrol leaks near a hot engine and exhaust are a fire risk. Fuel hoses harden with age and heat, so replace them regularly. Use fittings and seals suitable for petrol and secure hoses so that they cannot touch moving or hot parts.

Fittings and hoses

Small fittings such as T-pieces, Y-pieces, tank fittings and stoppers are inexpensive but essential for a reliable fuel supply. Check the diameter of your hoses and fittings before ordering, and replace O-rings and seals whenever you open a connection. Keep a few spare fittings and some fuel hose in the workshop so that a leak can be fixed quickly.

Engine maintenance

Regular maintenance keeps a rental engine reliable for many hours. Change the oil according to the hours of use, clean or replace the air filter often, especially on dusty tracks, and check the spark plug, the carburettor settings and the clutch. Gaskets and seals should be replaced whenever the engine is opened. Keeping a maintenance log for every kart helps you plan parts and spot problems early.

Compatibility with your kart

Most chassis parts are designed for specific models. SODI rental chassis such as the RT8, RX8, RT10, SR5 and LR5 share many components, but dimensions, threads and mounting points can differ between versions. Check the model and the version of your kart, compare the dimensions in the product title with the part you are replacing, and if in doubt send us a photo or the part code. We work with SODI rental karts every day and can confirm fitment before you order.

Inspection and maintenance

Rental karts take impacts from barriers, kerbs and other karts every day. A regular inspection routine catches problems before they become dangerous: look for bent components, cracks around welds, worn bushes and loose fasteners. Replace damaged parts rather than straightening them, because bent steel loses strength. After any repair, check the alignment and make sure all fasteners are tightened to the correct torque and secured with lock nuts or thread locker where required.

Correct installation

Install chassis parts with the correct tools and tighten bolts gradually and evenly. Use new self-locking nuts where the originals were self-locking, since the nylon insert loses its grip after repeated use. Check that moving parts such as steering components and axles turn freely without play after installation. Keep a stock of the most common wear parts so that a kart can return to the track quickly after a minor incident.

Frequently asked questions

Measure the inner diameter of your current fuel hose or the outer diameter of the fittings, and choose parts that match exactly.
