Injector fuel line - jubilee clip?
I've bought a set of new fuel injectors from eBay. Though the part number is compatible, I didn't realise they didn't include the hoses to go to the fuel rail.

The question is can I put fuel line over the end and jubilee clip it and does anyone know what diameter fuel line it should be? The original ones obviously have that weird compression fit attachment.

Yes those are the ones I received, without the hoses. Want to know if there is a workaround or whether they’re just wrong.

They don't look right to me. Personally, I would have gone for these if buying new.https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224566901617

Well they look wrong to me, the o ring at the top is to seal on the fuel rail , the fuel rail on these isn’t like that , I suppose you could try a hose and clip but the ends not designed for it like the original
Re: Injector fuel line - jubilee clip?
I would try to return them and buy some of the others in the link I posted. Or better still buy some S/H ones and get them refurbished.

Yeah this is what I thought, bit of a shame!

7.3mm ID hose on original injectors. I would send those back and spend money getting your originals refurbished.
