If this is in the wrong place, sorry.
I installed they're fuel lines last night and I must say it is a great product. It beats the hell out of trying to get the right bend on some brake lines. Plus they are stainless. They went right in according to directions and the bends are perfect. I had my motor out already but I could see doing it with the engine in place no problem. They are a bit $pendy, but if you were bending them yourself from brake tubing I could see spending a ton of time to get them right. Also whats your car worth after all the time and money you put into it. a 150 bucks is not alot of money if its burning on the side of the road.... I think the engine compartment lines could be a bit longer to reach down around the corner of the hell hole but overall I give them an A+ Thanks and I will now drive without worrying about the plastic fuel lines. |

Thanks for the thumbs up on this product. I have been thinking about getting a set. The idea was made a necessity yesterday when I finally got around to removing my gas tank and as soon as I got it a couple inches up I heard ".....SNAP... CRUNCH..." yep, the lines were so bad that the disintegrated as I pulled the tank. I took out a section and turned it to powder with a little pressure. I definitely plan on doing some SS.
What about between the SS lines and the tank and then to the pump, etc. My PO had some funky makeshift shite that is lousy, I don't know what is supposed to be there. Can I get something as durable as these SS lines for those runs? |
