No 2 speeds yet,

I use the same fuel line on my Vulcan as I do on my 8th scale buggy.....not sure what the size is, but any normal fuel line should work...

I had problems with the stock line cracking at the muffler so I replaced with stock line from the hobby store. It would slip off the muffler when I installed the body so I inserted a spring from a ball point pen in the tube to keep it from kinking and tiewrapped it on using a very small zip tie. This seems to have solved this problem.

Standard 2.5mm I.D fuel line (eg: for 1/8 scale) will not properly fit the fittings and may leak.
I used Dubro fuel line blue (1.5mm I.D) for small plane engines, it fits right, thicker and more durable than the standard line.

I have even been able to stretch this line to fit a small fuel filter. Good luck

i have noticed that the stock fuel line is very brittle and easy to break, so i just went to the hobby shop with one of the little brass fittings from the car and chose a more durable tube. realy, you just have to see what works. hope that helped
