I just wondered if anyone could give me some idea of how hard it is to replace a fuel line in a Tamora ?

I need to replace if from the fuel rail on the engine, but I can't follow it easily after it goes through the bulk head.

Just thought perhaps someone had done this job already and if so could give me some idea of how hard a job this is and perhaps a very brief overview of what is involved.

Would be much appreciated.

I recently replaced the return on my Tuscan. The pipes run between the chassis and the body above the heat shielding on the transmission tunnel and emerge at the rear of the car on the right hand side, close to the diff.

I found it easiest to feed them in from the back to the front. Was easier than it first looked.

Yep, Matti is the fuel line expert...

Don't use a normal type lead lamp with standard bulb when near fuel, knew a guy who did and petrol dripped on the bulb, pop goes the hot glass and bang went the fuel vapour and the doctor said that looks nasty.
