Looks like it not my week now ive sprung a leak.
I need to replace the fuel line underneath the car. Can anyone give me any tips on how its done. I've sussed out how to disconnect the line from the fuel rail but how do the other 2 joints in the engine bay by the bulkhead, and the 2 further back towards the pump? So how do the lines come away from the plastic pipes.
Also, done some searching and I cant find where to get new lines from, any offers please?

Many thanks.

 

I had a company supply me with all brand new oem brake and fuel lines for my sapph 2wd, every pipe even abs block etc.
The guys name was Trevor wheeler but I'd have to search my paperwork for his company's name.

Splendid thanks gents. Great link.

Cos500, did you disconnect/reconnect the fittings yourself, how is it done?

Thanks.

 

No mate, the work was carried out by the garage but I did have to replace all the black plastic clips that retain both fuel and brake lines, available on eBay just make sure you get the right ones

 

Yes mate I know what you mean and mine need replacing too. I cant tell how they are fastened to the underside of the car because of the underseal. Are they actually bolted to the floorpan?

Thanks.

 

Have a look on my resto thread (link on my sig)

you need a tool to separate them, once you know what the tool looks like I'm sure you could make something work

 

Its the Black handle prong type tool not the red one

 

No I don't think so, I'm sure they just twist out but not 100% on that, buy your replacements and have a look how they fit, remove the underseal around yours, you might find they just fall to bits anyway

 

The clips on the floor are self tapping screws and the last one on the rear footwell and rear chasing leg slide off, hope this helps
