Hello everyone I am new to the site and wonder if you can advise me on how to connect steel to nylon fuel lines. I know there are compression joints for metal to nylon pipe connecting, and other fittings that can be used to fit to nylon fuel lines. My car is a Ford Mondeo mark three petrol and I want to cut out rusty sections of the fuel feed and the other line from the purge valve. Thanks in advance.

I don't use them myself, but I see this sort of thing which might be what you're looking for:

For what it's worth, if I was replacing rusty fuel pipes I'd want to replace the whole run, not just the sections that were obviously rusty.

Thanks GreenV8S yes you are right it would be better to replace the full line, the Ford originals are around £220 for the metal lines. I will check out the fittings you mentioned.
