today i was driving my corolla and the brake peddle started sinking to the floor, and by the time i got home, there was very little brakes left. the master cylinder was very low but i did not see any fluid at any of the wheels. so i added some brake fuild, pumped the peddle and backed the car up some. i saw some brake fuild on the ground where the car was so i checked under the car where the driver's side rear passenger sits and this is where the brake lines and the gas lines all run thru a conduit to the front of the car. 4 of the 5 metal lines are rusted thru. i pull a few lines to the side and all of a sudden gas is streaming out of 2 of the 3 gas lines. my question is, the fat gas line with the brake line style connection :: what pressure is the gas under in this line when engine is running? can i use rubber fuel hose for a short time to take car to mechanic?
