Default fuel line upgrade

how hard is it to change or upgrade the fuel lines in a 95 civic coupe, not that I need to upgrade but a part of my fuel line is damaged and I would like to change it, or upgrade it to stainless steel.
so my question is how hard would it be to take it out and replacing it?

the rubber one from the fuel pressure riser? Just put in regular fuel line. If you are going to upgrade everything, its not hard, more pricey then anything. Theres a post around here recently today that showed a sump pump, i think its called, with stainless lines, ask him.

its damage right below the filter, maybe I can just cut it there and put a piece of rubber or stainless line in.

Leroy, you can get a 37 degree flaring kit at some auto stores and possibly at summit, ect. Run AN fittings off of that.

yeah, you can change that to stainless.... someone prolly even sells a kit for it. I thought you were talking about the return line, which is just fuel hose.

Check out the May issue of Honda Tuning and they modified the stock hardline going into the fuel filter converting it to stainless and then running all the BDL fuel stuff.
