omg,,, i have to replace the fuel line on my 66 ,,its full of rust,, right now im using rubber hose ,eek , im waiting on my new fuel line right now,, thanks for this video
With every episode I find more and more things that need to be fixed on my 68. Not only is my fuel line run to the 6 cylinder hole it's mostly rubber as well, even running past the header.
Another needed vid Jeff, I got my fuel line from inline tube . It came in 2 pieces lines ,not as long . But had to get another line to fill in, did want long hole that was on original 66 line .. Thanks man ,Mor Wil ,az ;)
Good timing on this video as I will be doing the same on my '68 in a few weeks with everything in the car and no lift. At least mine looks to be a 2 piece line since part of it runs through the torque box.
Would it be easier to start from under the car and snake the back 1/3 into place instead of trying to make the whole length through the small section by wheel?
Would it be best to do your own line? This looked a little tough and was wondering if I got a spoll of stainless steel fuel line I did the bends myself? Does it have to be a certain length or as long as it connects to the engine from the tank and tucked in safely? Thanks in advance.
Here is a question: Does the height of the fuel line you run, in relation to the tank and fuel pump, mater? To save hassle I'd like to run my new lines over the inner fender to the mechanical fuel pump in my 73 Torino. This rout will bring them over the height of the fuel pump. and back down to it. Does that even matter? Please help.
I tried but decided to do some disassembly. Removed the left shock, loosened the left tailpipe twisting it downward and also dropped the emergency brake cable. My tank was also out of the car for replacement (thank you ethanol fuel).
I’m getting parts together to do the Sniper Holey EFI install and I want to do 2 hard lines from front to rear. Don’t Luke the idea of using the flex hose they give you for the return line. Do you think I could just buy 2 of these NPD hard lines and run the next to each other? Or is there a better way I haven’t thought about yet?
when i got my 67 Mustang coupe . it did not come with a fuel line. i got one from someone, not NPD. they said it was pre-bent just like the factory. wrong . i don,t know what it was made for .but it was not a 67 Mustang. of course i had already thrown away my sales slip. so down to Oreilly,s buy a roll of metal fuel line and i ran it under the rocker panels. i did it like Jeff. jackstands, mufflers in the way and the driveshaft . now i just need to finish everything else. does anybody know how i can get more than 24 hrs. in a day.?
I TOOK THE GAS TANK OUT and left rear lower shock mounting with dual exhaust left on car WORKED GREAT...

You are welcome!

Not good, that is a fire issue. '68 should be easier though.

Oh brother. I should have done this when I did my brake lines. At least the exhaust isn't in yet. Great vid.
Shmutz under the car..... LMFAO.... Getting ready to do the exact thing to my 67 coupe. Thanks for the video.

Since I need to install brake and fuel, is it easier to do one or the other first?

Tried it. On that car there just wasn't any room.
Can you just run some Earls vapor guard fuel line? Do you have have your go hardline?
Does it help if the fuel tank is out of the fuel tank is out of the car
What if you have a torque box do you have to cut the line?
Please do a video on the brake lines next!

There are guys that've been their own lines as I said in the other post, that doesn't mean that you should do that.
@@AutoRestoMod great! I just wanted to be sure. Thank you for the Info. I also like watching your videos!

I'm glad you at least finally got it in there
Would it be just as difficult to do the brake lines as well?
Not as. The smaller line will squirrel in pretty handily. Plus you aren't having to go all the way to the fuel tank.
Thanks, that's good to know.
I put the transmission lines in my 62 with everything installed. It was very difficult till I separated the lines and put them in one at a time lol.
That can be a solution
houdini would be proud!!
We try! I'd never seen it done.
I've been involved in this fuelishness myself a few times.

What did you work out for a return line? I am about to put a sniper on my 66 too and just wondering what is the best way to go.
Bryan Chiang I still haven’t pulled the trigger on it. It would have been nice to get a response bc I’m still planning on going EFI.
Drew Seibert i’ll let you know if I do it first. I might just try to set it up without a rerun if that’s possible.
dig your videos. for me, metal=brake line, rubber=brake hose.
I cut mine in the center used a compression fitting saves the hassle
Has never leaked
gotta ask - that fuel line must be a real joy to ship, was it folded??
Hah! asked too soon! :D

If you figure that out...let us know!
Sounds like my 67. Most of the parts came in a box. Fuel and brakes lines, nowhere to be found... Lots of time spent watching videos. Good luck
Looks sorta like trying to tie your shoe with one hand.
Yes, and it is your left hand...and you are right handed...and hanging upside down.
First
hate the fact the CC are switched off on your video's...so annoying.
Until VERY recently, CC was terrible. We now have it turned on on our later videos.
5 minutes ìn and this job sucks
It is not fun. The line should not be a solid to the engine bay for V8 cars.
Does it help if the fuel tank isn't in the car
Not really.
