Message It's fuel leak season... As the cold weather causes aging stock fuel hose to shrink, the hose clamps exert less tension on the hose, causing dangerous leaks to form. The OEM Nissan fuel hose is extremely expensive to replace, so we've found a solution. At $2.50/foot, Gates Barricade Fuel Injection Hose is about 1/8 the price of OEM hose, and has several advantages over OEM hose:

  • Best-in-Class working pressure of 225 PSI (a stock Twin Turbo operates between ~34psi and ~54psi).
  • Multi-fuel compatible: Approved for use with leaded and unleaded gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, E85, 100% methanol, ethanol, and gasohol fuels.
  • Operating temperature ranges from -40°F to 257°F (-40°C to 135°C) continuous, up to 302°F (150°C) intermittent.
  • Lowest permeation rate on the market at 1 gr/m2/day
  • Exceeds California Air Resources Board (CARB) and EPA requirements.

Gates Barricade Fuel Injection Hose - $2.50/ft

We also carry original Nissan OEM Fuel Hose Clamps, though we recommend the new-style Nissan OEM Fuel Hose Spring Clamps, which are both cheaper and maintain constant pressure on the hose, preventing winter-time leaks. These are also available in a pack of 20 to replace all clamps in the engine bay:
