Re: [Chevelle-list] Fuel Filter

[Dale]

I had braided hose from the tank to the fuel rail on my 67 w/FI.  Personally I didn’t notice any fuel smells. I used braided line rather than a hard line mainly because it was easier to tuck up out of the way along the frame rail. Once I figured out how to cut the ends off cleanly for the fittings, it was pretty simple. It was a little more expensive than hard line but, then again, it’s harder to kink. <G> Dale McIntosh 67 El Camino 1967 Chevelle Reference CD http://www.chevellecd.com ACES #1709/TC Gold #92 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Clint Hooper Sent: Monday, February 27, 2006 5:12 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Fuel Filter   Like I said,I don't know true it is,Larry.

Since I already ordered the braided hose kit today, I guess I get to be your guinea pig. I will report back with my findings before summer...   Larry Shouse ----- Original Message ----- From: Clint Hooper   Don't know how true it is but I have always heard not to run all steel braided hose on a street car. Something about the fittings "sweating" and creating a strong fuel smell in the car. GM66's method is a good one.

I have the same concerns you do, so I'm planning to go with Summit p/n SUM-PUMPKIT3 which is a - 8 AN diameter fuel line kit designed to work with 3/8 in. NPT components.  That's my plan anyways, unless somebody here can speak up and tell me I'm headed in the wrong direction.   Larry Shouse
