No, black pipe is not suitable for diesel fuel lines. It is typically used for gas and water applications and can corrode when exposed to diesel fuel, leading to leaks and safety hazards. Instead, it's recommended to use diesel-rated hoses or tubing made from materials specifically designed for fuel applications, such as rubber or certain plastics, which are resistant to the chemicals in diesel.
you will see a balloon made from rubber witch is put on a rubber pipe line , keep the way on this pipe line and you'll find the filter , this balloon refill manual with fuel the pipeline when you finish the diesel .
The black smoke is caused by too much diesel fuel being supplied to the engine when you first open the throttle. Quite often this happens when the fuel injectors are worn and /or the turbo is not coming up to speed quick enough.
Pipe coming out of the fuel tank
What are pipe lines to be used to transfer diesel in Engine test bed applications
i not sure but it could be the drain for the fuel fulterhousing mines doing the same thing but its leakin from right behind the motor Are you sure it is not a fuel return line from the injectors?
No. I understand that the diesel reacts with the galvanisation and causes 'flakes' to lift off, this will cause blockage. GarethM
If this is not a diesel, then the engine is running too rich. The deposits that you are talking about are carbon deposits that result from too much fuel being sent into the cylinders.
Unburnt fuel
Diesel coming out of the tank breather pipe on a 1997 non-turbo diesel van may indicate a few issues. It could be due to overfilling the fuel tank, causing the excess fuel to escape through the breather. Alternatively, a blocked or malfunctioning tank vent can create pressure that forces fuel out. Lastly, a faulty fuel cap or damaged breather hose might also contribute to this problem.
There is a high pressure fuel line under the throttle body that carries fuel to the cold start injector. There is a black pipe that feeds idle air to the same spot to insure the cold start injector gets a good mixture.
