I inherited a 76, 914. Car hasn’t been driven much over the last 15+ years. Freshening things up (tune, fix oil leaks, replace fluids, fix a few electrical issues…). A coworker said I should replace the fuel lines through the tunnel with stainless. I’ve watched a couple videos of it done on a 74, but the layout looks different. The fuel filter and pump are under the fuel tank on mine. The plastic fuel lines look original. Has my car been modified or is this how the 76 comes? Any help with a vacuum line schematic would also be much appreciated. |

The stainless steel fuel lines are the same for all years though and should work just fine with your car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) PS: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) |

Do you know of a kit or set of lines that run from the tunnel SS lines to the eng SS lines? Or do I just run rubber fuel line? |
