Hey all- Hope the weekend was good for you. Put in the new oil senders this weekend, but was unable to test drive due to the "bubbling fuel lines".... Yeow...after reading the post this morning concerning the "FIRE"... I realised that could have been me. I had replaced my fuel lines with regular 5/16 line, not knowing that this would not last. I read a post on the line a couple of weeks ago about needing pressure fuel line and that regular would not last so I've been keeping an eye out on them. Friday I noticed some leakage and bubbling of the line, so I decided not to drive or even start it until I replace them. Thanks to the Volks gods and you all! Anyone have advice on fuel lines? Also today I notice someone else is having the oil pressure syndrome. How do you tell if your engine is running hot? The gauge never goes above halfway. The engine surface temp is around 175-180 once warmed up. Suggestions always welcome... THANKS!
