If the fuel lines are original, this is the biggest mistake you could make. Rethink it. Vans burn all the time from the injector lines failing right over the hot exhaust system. dylan ________________________________ From: Mark <mbrush@GMAIL.COM> To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Sent: Sunday, October 4, 2009 8:07:51 PM Subject: fuel lines: if it ain't broke Hello all - I'm replacing my gas tank and while I have it out I'm thinking of replacing all the fuel lines too.� Got the GoWesty fuel line kit - HOWEVER - I'm re-thinking an entire fuel line replacement job.� I got the little plastic bugger out (the one prone to breaking and causing fires) - and I think I'm going to stop there.� Just based on how difficult, and messy it was getting that one line out - I'm thinking I won't mess with the injectors, injector rails, and seals.� The lines appear o.k. and I fear messing something up in finishing this job (never pulled an injector before).� Any thoughts out there?� Should I stop - or go for it!� The engine has 152,000 on it.
