Re: fuel line

hard metal line or rubber? rubber line you'll need from the junkyard or dealership. the hard line is hard to get a hold of because it has little o-rings on the ends. pick out the same diameter and the right length with the same size threads, but when you put that line into an old fitting your going to need a fuel leak repair line. they're about 1 ft. long and have the same design with the o-rings. they use a compression fitting, but I don't trust it so I used rubber hose to connect my fittings between ordinary line and the repair section use a lot of hose clamps. they make special fuel injection hose clamps, I used about 10. you're gonna need some sort of pipe cutter (preferably small) to take off ends of the line. don't over think this. where is the line you need to replace? btw, DO NOT TRY THIS WITHOUT USING THE O-RING DESIGN!!!! I STARTED MY CAMARO ON FIRE BECAUSE I DIDN'T USE THE O-RING DESIGN AT FIRST!!! LEARN FROM MY MISTAKES!!!
