Stainless Braided Fuel Line - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #55278 6 posts Started by trdproven
I was wondering how you would install a stainless steel braided fuel line. It is apparent I will no longer use the existing aluminum fuel line. Tell me if I am wrong. I would buy the new steel lines and rerun the line from the gas tank all the way to the fuel filter? Does this new fuel line have its own nut and threading to connect to the fuel filter?

This question also helps solve my friends car because his fuel filter line in got cross threaded and getting steel braided lines would replace his factory fuel lines.

Where would be the best place to get it?

Thanks in advance.

It just replaces the rubber hose that goes from the frame to the capiler. Its like 14 inches or so for each wheel.

haha FUEL line, not brake line smile.gif

My friends own has a cross thread on the fuel in line. Major Cross thread. Is there a repair kit?

So does he have the cross thread on the fuel line nipple? or what?
Problem solved. converted the fuel in line with 22R style, fuel hose, fuel nut, and two clamps.
