Anyone have the two plastic fuel lines from the engine compartment?
One of mine on my 74 got partially melted through because it was touching the main battery cable when it shorted to the underside of the trunk near the starter! It feels like it it about to burst and I don't want to waste any expensive fuel! Let me know how much you want with shipping to Escondido CA (92026) Thanks! -Grog |

Hey John, to be clear, we are talking about the engine bay tubing sections passing through the engine tin. The 1970-74 tubing was definitely milky white/clear. Are you saying the engine bay tubing for the late cars was black? I have not seen that...Can you post a photo?
I know the 1975-76 center tunnel tubing was black. |

There are no "Tunnel Lines" and "Engine Compartment Lines" in the 75-76's, There are just one piece lines from the front bulkhead to the rubber hoses at the engine. |
