Looks like the Previous Owner of my car used the rubber fuel lines in the center channel of the car instead of the hard plastic lines or stainless steel replacements. How big of a problem is this? I have to do a clutch tube repair so the car is off the road. I really don't have the $$ right now to put in new fuel lines but If thats what needs to be done I'll just have to find a way. Any thoughts? just trying to sort through this car and keep it on the road. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

looks like I'm in the market for some new fuel lines. Any suggestions as to what product to use and where to buy? The garage does smell like a refinery and maybe this will stop that. One of my favorite things about these cars is the VW Vinyl smell of the interior so maybe I'll get that back if I replace the fuel lines.
