Is there a link somewhere the explains step by step (with pics
preferable) how to change the fuel lines ?  I'm worried about having
fuel spill everywhere (safety first), so explanations on how to avoid
that will be great!  I just bought a Westy couple of weeks ago and
I've heard so much about the fuel lines that I want that to be my
first fix.

Also, I've checked in van-cafe, and they sell the 7 mm hose, that's
the one to use right ?  If so, how many feet should I use (they sell
by the foot)

Regards,

Hugo
