What are the sizes of the fuel and vacuum lines on a peace motor sports 50cc scoot?  |

I heard they were 3/16" internal diameter, too, so I ordered relatively expensive Motion Pro tygon hoses in that size - clamps too - and they were way too big ... went on very loosely. I then took my stock hose to a local auto parts place and was told it was closer to 5/32". So I went to my local Mil Mangueras (A Thousand Hoses) store and they hooked me up with polyurethane hose in that size that they said was appropriate. (I'm not sure if it is.) It fit perfectly, but clamps are hard to find. I ordered these www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002M3NZSW/ , but they haven't arrived. I hope they fit. Take a sample of your hose to an auto parts store to make sure of what you have. |

One tip a customer found out..make SURE it is vacuum line. He used some thin wall line and it would collapse under vacuum.  No clue where he got such thin whimpy stuff. But that was what was causing his scoot issues at high speeds. That stuff was so thin and limp...n crappy...I doubt that even the Chinese are capable of such low quality..  |

clear 3/8 o.d. hose from honda is what I got. works great, very tough stuff. I also got the 1/4" in-line "stone catridge type" fuel filter. I don't like the paper or gauze filters.
Very tough to put on but works great with no clamps. clamps are in place, really don't need'em, But they are there for insurance.
Also, it was cheaper than going to a scooter shop.
