I am trying to figure out what these two lines would go to on the bottom right of my fuel tank. I am guessing they go to tunnel lines but I am not for sure. confused24.gif

This is a picture of where the lines would be at if the tank was in it's spot. I am guessing the lines go through the small hole but I don't know. confused24.gif

Inlet and Outlet fuel lines, the larger one has a small tube like mesh filter inside the tank that should be changed, if you do intend to replace the filter (about $10-12.) then you need to replace the copper gaskets as well, I bought both at AA. You would be supprised to see the gunk in the tank where these lines enter inside the tank, try not to damage the metel tube and the fittings, they are no longer made. When I removed my lines to replace the mess filter, very little of the mesh was left. Mike

Thanks Mike. Which one is which though?

Be VERY careful of the thick paper gaskets for the fuel fittings. They MUST be in there, and they're NLA. The Cap'n

No, not that small hole. You kinda have that pic backwards ...


In the picture below, you can see the two fuel lines coming through the fire wall. Note the rubber grommets, those are a MUST!

And the two lines are different in size, the larger being the supply line to the fuel filter and fuel pump, the smaller one being the return line.

You car won't run right if you hook them up incorrectly ...

You should really buy a Haynes manual. It would answer alot of your questions.
