I need some help finding fuel resistant rubber hose (tubing) with an 8mm I.D. and 12mm O.D. S.A.E. - 5/16" x 15/32" (7/16" O.D. might work).

I have 8mm copper fuel lines coming into compression fittings on banjo's on a fuel pump. I need material to compress between the copper fuel line & banjo fitting.

McMaster comes close.

Anyone have a source?

Thanks.

If you need fuel-resistant hose, go see your local Aeroquip distributor since they have lots in various sizes.

Not sure if this is what you need but check it out, also perhaps call Stoddard. Great vendor for 356 and early 911 parts.

Thanks. Will do a local search.

As posted in Off-Topic -- Conclusion -- McMaster-Carr to the rescue.

Ordered three different styles of tubing, 2 worked (at least in dry fitting). Both a high-temperature Viton and an oil-resistant black Buna-N rubber tubing with a 5/16"ID/7/16"OD. They slide over the copper fuel lines easily, into the banjo fitting nicely and when the compression is increased just by hand, the banjo fitting is tight and won't move (so it's likely fuel tight). Will check for sure (with fire extinguisher in hand) with the first engine start.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.

Suggest you specify what year Porsche you want it for. Early models have lower pressures than ones with fuel injection.
