dear fuel line
i went through the hole in the fire wall and used 5/8 heater hose to cover
every piece of fuel line
from injector and back all the way to the fuel pump ...
plastic zip ties secure the covered fuel line at every possible place
needing to be secured
no worries since
:)
second or third of the many christmas dinners about to be had had tonight
local brain injury society was hosted by local church ...
hmmm good eats had by all ...
happy fuel lines and happy tummy
:)
regards
