Someone mentioned awhile ago that the Bird had a tech article or something listing the approx. lengths of the various vaccum lines. Damned if I can find it. Wanted to order some new vaccum and fuel lines but I don't know how much (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
BTW are we all agreed that it is OK to replace the plastic fuel lines with Stainless Steel 5/16 (oops edited) lines or am having flashbacks again? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) |

I think I will investigate the mild steel v the stainless issue further. |
