nylon fuel lines

Well, the search function is a great tool, but I'm not having any luck finding any past discussions on the low pressure fuel lines. The two lines running between the IP and secondary filter base got in a fight at Haspin and one of them needed a little surgery.

I can get some braided stainless replacements, but I'd like to know where to find the stock stuff. Also, a pic of a disassembled connection showing any little brass bits would be helpful in my local search. (I haven't pulled anything apart because I'm still driving the thing every day.)

I got mine from a local western auto. I think NAPA has them too.

i have always used truck air brake line. it is the same size, it is nylon on the inside, but it is uv proof and reinforced with filiments to stand air brake pressures so fuel press is no problem. get the brass inserts at most good hardware stores and use the nylon looking ferrules or use brass if you like, i have always used the nylon ferrules and don't go crazy tightening them

Ditto the sizes ae the same as the common water tubing ferrals used for running nylon and copper lines to your ice maker. Toms idea on the brake line is prolly the best way to go, check Napa, etc for that. Its an easy job... Not something to sweat.

Get your finger out of your nose and get that fixed! Might be up your way this weekend. Will call.

Excellent! I'll get on the phone book in a jiffy.




And don't worry about my nose, gimp. Thar's gold in them nostrils!
