Is it safe to try to start up my project with what I assume are original fuel lines? I won’t be driving anywhere, just want to see if it will turn over with the work I’ve done so far.

Bend and flex them looking for cracks Get a fire extinguisher and watch for any leaks in the engine bay. We started a low mile car that mostly sat and a fuel injector leaked after ten minutes of running. Fuel dripping on the exhaust is bad. |
