My fuel pipe in my 1.0 which goes to the fuel pump is starting to crack on the surface so today when looking through my stock of rubber pipes I found one the right size etc but,

I am not sure if it is a fuel pipe or coolant pipe.

Does it matter i.e. will the petrol break up the rubber in the wrong type of pipe?

Should I just buy a new fuel pipe or will this one do?

Thanks

Get the correct hose. Some rubber pipes are not lined, therefore are not suitable for fuel.
