Default SC Fuel Lines

G'day,

Just getting around to replacing the plastic fuel line that runs from the tank to the engine, through the transmission linkage tunnel.

Has anyone done this? Is this a nightmare job?

Any tips much appreciated.

Stef.

I did this once on an SC. Terrible job. I hated it, but it's doable. Take your time. Use good flashlights.

Not a fun job.

Per this thread it can take up to 10 hours labor and $250 parts

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsc...uel-lines.html

From the thread
the oem replacement lines were obtained from our host at a cost of $91.50 for part 911-356-062-08-oem(fuel return line) and $77.75 for part 911-356-066-08-oem(fuel pressure line), along with 4 new grommets for where the lines go through the body metal into the tunnel @ $2.00 each, part 911-356-202-03-oem, shipping to NY was $23.50and took 7 days ground transit. the main parts are a semi-hard plastic with rubber fuel line and fittings on the tank ends that is flexible enough to be shipped in a coil in a square box. the ends are steel fittings that fit exactly where they are supposed to and are the exact length you will need(remember, it's a really tight fit here). The plastic part is very smooth and shiny and hard enough to slide through the very narrow openings without getting sideways or jammed up like a more flexible rubber hose could
