Thought I would start up my car today and take a quick spin, been desperate to go for a drive but the weather has not been to good. Started her up and had fuel pour out at the pressure regulator. Thought it was a loose clamp from the cold, tried to tighten it but still leaked. Shut her down and pulled the line - not good. Glad I discovered it in my garage. I replaced some lines last year but looks like I should just do them all in the spring. Just wanted to give a heads up to fellow newbies, the lines may look good but may be rotted from heat or stress..

Replace ALL the hoses, including under the fuel tank! Who knows what condition those are in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
If you can afford it, replace the plastic lines through the tunnel with Racer Chris' or Rotary'14's SS lines "while you're in there" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
