Subject:Fule line leaks
From:Anthony Zygmunt

Does anyone know which fuel lines are prone to leaks
that cause engine fires?

My 81 Westy has three types.

1) rubber junctions - used to connect between
different lines (ie fuel pump to plastic line)

2) plastic tube - used to run from the fuel pump/tank
to the engine compartment.

3) metal lines - connect to the injectors.

I found some dry rot on the rubber lines so I changed
all of these. The plastic and metal lines seem fine.
Is it necessary to change the plastic and metal tube?

Thanks,

Tony Zygmunt
