Hello

I have searched the interweb for a while now, and figured i would ask here, has anyone replaced the hard fuel lines on a 86 S2 i mean the lines that run from the fuel tank to the engine bay.

If so can someone please let me know where they purchased the lines from (im in the UK) and what sizes they are

Cheers in advance

Thanks for the reply, how weird i had a leak in almost the same area on mine when i bought it

, this has all been replaced, but i was going to change out all the lines, but if its a mare to do i may not now

Have youb replaced all the piping in the engine bay as i am about to do this as a precaution (bought kit from 928RUS)

Cheers

Hello

Do you know the size of the line outer diameter that was replaced as i may pick some of this up

Cheers

To start with if you do you, you HAVE to drop the back axle/box etc... I had a leak (rusty pipe) at the rear where the pipe comes down from the tank, and Jon Mitchells garage replaced the rusty pipe with the new white nylon type pipe with brass joining fittings to my original pipe under the drivers seat...the whole job took around one hour including a cuppa.... if you replace the original hard lines completely ...think around 6 hours plus.....and LOTS of work to drop the rear axle... All the best Brett
