Re: fuel lines

You've got to be more specific. Are you asking about vacuum lines or wiring diagram for the fuel pump?

Re: fuel lines

no the actual lines and which one is which. The problem im having is I have fuel spitting out of what appears to be a vent line. so before I pull the tank to inspect I would like to have a diagram of how and what the lines are. I have a Chilton manual but shows nothing.
keep in mind this car was a tbi car and now its a tpi, don't know if that matters

Re: fuel lines

The 3/8" is the feed, the 5/16" is the return, might be 1/4" for the vent (should have a spring clamp). Use open end wrenches to figure out the sizes.

Re: fuel lines

If you can purchase a vented gas cap it would do the same thing. The vent is a one way check valve to let air into the tank.
