I am going to replace all the rubber fuel lines on my 75 1.8 and before I get to it was wondering if anyone has any helpful tips.

Yep... remove filler first to make things easier... I put longer lines in cars I have owed... yes they "look messy and need to be laid down upon installaton but the longer lines allow you to prop the tank up part way out now and more easily disconnect/reconnect the fuel lines for removal/installation.
After you have done it once... the process is goes pretty quick and you won't think twice about pulling the tank before working on anything buried underneath. Getting the rubber brace pieces situated right on installation can take some joggling around of the tank but that is about the most difficult think after you have installed the longer rubber fuel lines. |
