Turns out I have a nice big hole in my nitrous feed line so I need to order another one. To get the size, would I just measure the orifice of the fitting it attaches to? It's 3/16 so that would make it a -3 line. Just wanna make sure 'cause I'm trying to get it here for tomorrow night.

3 an ?? kinda smallish aint it? Sure it aint 4 an?
Is that the ID on the hose, or the fitting? Should be measuring the fitting I would think. Most are 4 an stuff on nitrous I've seen.

I measured the orifice that's on the fitting that the line attaches to, 3/16. That would be a -3, correct?

Well I just ordered a -4 from Jeg's since they said they hadn't heard of a -3 feed line before. :shrug: If that's not it, guess I'll be off to Melville after work tomorrow.

Sounds like an oddball size to me.
But yeah 3/16 should be 3 an.
I dont believe I've ever seen 3 an feed line before.

Shoulda got new fittings and some 6 an line !
and a pro-shot solenoid. Good for a bunch more juice than the cheater solenoids will carry.
I havent sprayed the new motor yet, but its all in there just in case I get a wild hair.

-3 is pretty small for a feed line. i have seen the -4 feed lines, i have -6 to the solenoid, then -4 from there to the nozzle. that could be why some can run a .125 jet, or it could be an undersized solenoid. not all flow equally.
