I see a few companies are selling new stainless steel fuel lines, new fuel lines on our 50 years old cars is generally not a bad idea, but how about if they appear to be in good condition? The feed line on our car is about 10mm OD with a 1mm wall. While we are in there should they be replaced for good measure.

Thanks
