Using commodore fuel lines or some other 'long' car is good for getting cheap lengths of fuel line.

I feel the need for a pipe bender, pipe cutter and flaring tools.

I have bought so many tools since starting this project:

angle grinder
compressor
mig welder (and accessories)
spray guns(3), air lines, air tools,
spot welder
various sockets (big ones)
lots of bits and pieces

What's a few more?

Another budget way of bending steel lines is to head to your nearest steel supplyer and scab a few pipe offcuts, stick them in the vice and bend away.

The original line does make for a good return line and also makes for a good template to bend one up the same. Good luck bending a 5/16 line without the right gear it will just kink and become useless. Also another standard line is handy for the cannister return as you need it for EPA.

ok cool,

I just need to go buy a few meters of 5/16 and bend it up

then i can get back to wiring ... oh joy

also the original fuel line 1/4inch makes for a handy return line... you will need to add one of them anyway

best to borrow a good flaring tool, the cheap ones are useless and the expensive ones aren't worth it for one job

you should definitely flare them! that's a risk not worth taking pig dog!

I've never worried about flaring them. Never had a fuel leak with 40 odd psi fuel pressure. Not even that time I forgot to do the hose clamps up

Yeh no problem, I've only ever just flared the end like a brake line. Never had one leak yet.

Thanks for the offer, I will have a hunt around my area first (It might not be worth the postage)

by the way ... how do you make the bulb on the end? - I suppose that's another tool?
