Stainless fuel lines

Post by dmwhiteoak »

Does anyone see a problem in using stainless for the fuel lines. Im thinking of using 5\16 and 3\8. I have found a wet spot of fuel in the padding and going to replace them before the ezcool and carpet go back in. does anyone know off hand how long the lines are?

Stainless should be fine. The original sizes were more like 5/16 and 1/4".
Not sure on length, but a 5' section was not long enough.
