Question about scale wires/hoses

[mjjracer]

Forgive my stupid question , but I am trying to find out what the correct size would be for 1/20th plug wires and clear fuel injector lines. All the ads I see tell the size, but not the scale. Haven't done wiring in a while and am pretty clueless. (why should wiring be any different - I'm clueless about most things!)

Thanks!

I've been looking for some suitable 1/20th scale ignition wires myself. It's hard to find as our best source in the USA is from Detail Master and that's .012" or 0.31mm. The wires Tamiya supplies in my 1/20th scale Renault RE30B kit is 0.031" or 80mm. MFH has some nice piping cord which is 4mm or .016", but it's a little on the small side. So if anyone knows of a source of 0.030"/80mm wire I certainly would like to know.

Oh, and check out MFH clear tubing, P-902, P-903 and P904. They range from 1mm up.

Update:

I just checked my MFH 1/20th scale Gurney Eagle kit. They supply 4mm wires for the ignition. That's what I'm going to go with for my Lotus 25.
