I am leaking fuel......what the correct and best fuel lines size ?
I was watching my car at idle today, and I saw right before my eyes my fuel lines popped out and fuel burst everywhere...
I used 1/4" for the lines from the pump to the fuel rail....how badly will the fuel pressure drop if I upgrade all my lines to 3/8" or mayeb 1/2" ?
and any other suggestion on fuel lines ? I saw somebody's setup with a stainless fuel lines, but how do I fit it in the banjo on the fuel filter and rail ?
thanks
stan

u can use 2 earls fitting... this one to be exact
and put a ss line between it (the fuel filter and the fuel rail) or u can just go ahead and get an external and ss lines all around... thats me though... this isnt what u may need... so i would just do my first suggestion

Is it worth is to upgrade all of your fuel lines with braided stainless steel lines? Of maybe a larger inside diamater
