914World.com _ 914World Garage _ d-jet fuel lines

Posted by: mtndawg Jan 6 2010, 02:07 PM

This is for a '73 1.7L d-jet

I have replaced the lines on my fuel pump and in the engine bay with the factory sizes and now I'm moving on to the tank. I haven't taken my fuel tank out yet, so I'm asking ?'s without seeing the hoses and tank.
I've been reading previous posts looking for info. Here's what I need to know...

What do I need in addition to the screen (sock), hoses and crush washer?
What diameter (metric) and length are the hoses?
What size is the crush washer?
What else do I need?
Yes, I have a fire extinguisher.

Wow! I like the way Jeff represents from the West Coast. Thanks.

Any more comments about the hardward needed to revise my connections to the fuel tank?...

Lose the nylon lines and go with SS.
