So over the weekend I changed my original fuel lines to SS. I figured since I just completed the task I would offer advice to anyone who is also looking to do the same thing.
This job only took me about 30 minutes and the engine is still in the vehicle. Granted my car was already on jackstands and the fuel tank was already drained. With that being said, to start I cut the lines on the fuel tank and removed it. Then I removed the front access panel (one screw) near the pedal assembly inside the vehicle. Next I crawled under the vehicle and cut the lines about 6 inches from the grommet. After I cut the lines I pulled each one out which happened very easily.
Now I placed the larger of the two stainless steel lines and pushed it into the grommet and started feeding it through the tunnel. It went in very easily all the way up to the bend. Once it got to this point I wedged myself into the area near the pedals, reached into the access panel and placed the line at the grommet. I got back under the car and gave it a push and it went right through the grommet where it was supposed to be. The next line didn't go in so easily. I will offer this piece of advice which worked for me. Lying on my back with my feet towards the front of the car, I fed the line through the grommet and twisted it up and down while feeding it through. This worked perfectly! Since the end of the line is bent, it can easily catch on other lines in the tunnel, but by twisting it as you push it this keeps it from catching. I lined it up with the grommet in the access panel, gave it a push and it went right through.
So that's that. It literally took me no less than 30 minutes and the fact that the engine was still in the car really did not make that much of a difference.
