Anyone ever use polyethelene tubing from the building supply store? Is this what the factory fuel lines are made of? I want to finish the work on the tunnel and this is one of the things I need to take care of. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I just replaced my lines using the stainless steel brake lines described on the Pelican Parts website and Dave's post. The materials were pretty cheap (~$30), even buying twice as much tubing as I should have needed after an early FUBAR (OK ~$50). It was only a minor PITA once I figured out that there needs to be a couple of bends back towards the firewall (this isn't described in the technical article).
And the real moral of the story: If I can do it anybody can. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
