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

Is there something readily available to lubricate the grommets without using a petroleum product that will harm them? I see some rubber lubricant products online, but anything at the hardware store?


KY? Be careful, I hear that stuff blows your hair back
