Should be able to just buy a length of fuel line (rubber/synthetic) from your local autozone/advance/etc, cut it to length and replace it.

Re: i need fuel line

Cut the hard lines at the tank and at the filter. Leave 2-3" so you can connect a new rubber hose. Buy Fuel Injection hose, and install using Fuel Injection hose clamps. Use two clamps on each end for safety. If you really want to get fancy, there is a tool that will allow you to "roll" a hose bump into the line. Not really necessary, but just more info.

This is what the line looks like. Flare goes to filter rubber lune to tank. Im not hacking this up this is a date coded factory correct piece.

Re: i need fuel line

I just went through the same thing. I had to buy the new metal line from http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/fgl8507 . Then I made a short hose to replace the rubber part with an lines and fittings.
