Now you've done it. I'll have replace it this winter or not be able to sleep. It looks as the same tubing used on the illustrious Norton motorcycle rocker oil feed. Thanks, Gary B9472283

Did the oil pressure gauge work during this trip? If it did, the problem is probably not the oil pressure gauge line - possibly it is the remote oil filter adapter. The PO of my Tiger had replaced th

Theo- I think Mk1As came stock with a copper tubing oil pressure line to the gauge. In 72 my first Tiger had copper and I have always believed it was stock. ANYONE- was it copper or plastic when new?

It was black plastic. If you still have one, you are driving on borrowed time. It was the reason I listed the brass plug in my 'take along' repair kit. If the line breaks you will be stuck without t

Not so. I had mine burn through at an out of state meet.after it came in contact w/the headers. Therte's an easy roadside repair. You do carry an emergency tool kit don't you? Simply pinch the line

It would seem that a copper line could be acceptable IF it was coiled to flex from vibration at the appropriate point(s). Or, one could run copper from the gauge to a fixed location in the engine com

The oil line in my car Mark 1 B9472283 is original and routed as original. It is black nylon and routes over the top of steering column, through firewall hole through overflow tank bracket to block.

My original line didn't appear brittle last year either. I bumped it doing something or other and it snapped off. So, unless you only have 5,000 or 10,000 miles on the car, I would bet that the heat
