Well, got my tank out and I have one of the Tangerine Racing fuel lines in stainless (just one line as my car has carbs) and I can not seem to find the instructions or have just misplaced them. I bought the line from Chris about 2 years ago.I have done a search but can't seem to find any threads about others installing them.
Just wanted to ask how much work it is and how hard and if anybody has some tips to share or even add some pictures. I hope I can do this myself this weekend. Do I need to pull out the carpet in the center tunnel area? Thank you |

THANK YOU !!! Chris !!! Perfect timing !! I will start to install these on Saturday with some friends. The tank is out and we are doing the entire suspension as well...lots of rust in the tank but not for long...its being treated as I write this now. I was hoping I didn't have to remove the center tunnel carpeting as I just installed new ones from A and P and also glued them in which now looks to have been a big mistake (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I am afraid the carpet may get damaged if I try to remove it.... [/quote] Look at the photo I posted. There are two sets of tabs that you must bend back before you can get the old lines out. You should put little pieces of rubber fuel line back where those tabs are on the new ones. Bottom line, you need to remove the carpet to do this. Some say to put shrink wrap on the entire length of the new line in the tunnel. I don't think this is necessary, but you must protect the lines where the tabs are located as that is metal against metal. |
