I have a 1.7 in my 72' and I would like to replace all the fuel line this winter. What size and how much do I need? It will save me a added trip to the parts store. As always,thanks for the reponse.Bob

As I recall, and I don't do these a lot anymore, the rear of the car takes about 14 feet of 7.5mm high pressure fuel hose. Not likely to be foung in a generic parts store, most of which carry 8mm-5/16" generic fuel hose. There's also a dealer only piece of hose from the plastic supply line to the filter. It's IMPORTANT to use this hose and not some el cheapo substitute! Might wanna think about getting the hoses and clamps from one of the better P-car specialty parts places like GPR or Pelican (sorry, you other parts guys, I forget all the names!). The Cap'n
