I just pulled the 72' out of storage and I am going to change the fuel lines. what size and how long do I need it? I have the 1.7 with fuel injection. I know I can just search and find it but theres no fun in that after being away for 2 days. Thanks

Thanks I just got done replacing the plastic lines in the (engine compartment only) with steel brake lines. I used 3/8" and 5/16" X 60" rod for each was more than enough. In my research it seems like you need approx 60" (maybe a bit more) for the tunnel and 48" for the engine compartment. worked out good...just don't swap the return and pressure lines when you hook it back up!

I used 5/16" for both supply and return lines (60" and 48") in a '74 2.0. I used brass fittings at the firewall to connect them together.
