While replacing my fuel lines I noticed that they're metal from shifter lever going forward and plastic going back.
Here're my steps. First, I removed the fuel tank and noticed that fittings on the outside firewall are metal (Picture 1). Then I removed front tunnell access plate and the lines were metal (Picure 2). I thought that it was nice of PO to have them replaced. But when I removed rear tunnell access plate the lines were plastic. I wanted to trace the entire line and removed shifter lever and saw a some kind of connector that hooks up metal line to plastic (Picure 3). Is this stock setup? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I purchased a comlete set from Tangerine and those lines will replace everything firewall to firewall. However, I noticed that fittings (Picture 4) are much smaller than the ones that are there now (Compare Pic 1 to Pic 4). Should I be concerned sbout that? Happy New Year!
