Re: kink in plastic fuel line Reply #2 – March 11, 2005, 06:39:23 PM I believe the auto parts stores sell a repair kit...The Lincoln lines are about 3" to long. I used the return line from a LSC on my TC. First I split the plastic and removed the fitting, then cut it to the proper length. With the fitting greased and the line warmed in hot water, I just pushed the line back onto the fitting.. Been over five years... no problem.. Quote Selected
Re: kink in plastic fuel line Reply #3 – March 12, 2005, 02:36:50 PM whats the repair kit like? I wonder if I can just cut the line after the kink, remove bad line at the fitting and just shorten it up a couple inches? TurboCoupe50, How did you warm the line, just a pan of hot water, is the plastic line easy to work with?Thanks for the help guys Quote Selected
