I am sure that is possible, in fact the majority of the black stainless braided stuff came out of Australia, once you get the full parts list it is not that difficult to change sources

1987 Excel SE Anyone know the physical location of the instrument panel ground? I had mentioned previously that my instruments varied when the fans switch on, or the headlights are on. I just checked the voltage at fuse 13 and it does not dip appreciably[about .1 volt] when the fans switch on,refere...

somehow your post did not show up until I posted this, but this is the insert sheet from my owners manual confirming your correction

The original line is only, I think, 1/4 ID
One could downsize the parts at the carb end to -4 [4AN] and get the lines to align more like factory, shorter rear hose, lines a little bit closer together

Except for the rear most tunnel clip the new hose popped right into the clips. I somehow misplaced one of the forward riveted clips, but it is a common item.Fishing the line was actually easier than I thought, i thought the bulkhead under the tank was further forward but realized I could reach it wi...

https://i.imgur.com/YwCfdDz.jpg Cut the line in the boot, fished a string through a barb fitting and a small washer, tied a knot in it https://i.imgur.com/7BYiVya.jpg A piece of 1/4 rod with a 90 bend to sneak in and push the original line out of the clip. It is the only clip you cannot reach by ha...

https://i.imgur.com/rDjvNY4.jpg Gee my tablet has a crummy camera, but my iphone battery has blowed up I will get a list together at some point of all the parts I used I will suggest using steel fittings for the line that you cannot remove from the car. Wrecked two fittings because it is difficult ...

The hose itself is fine but the tape[required to keep it from flaring out]] and or the flaring out of the braid makes it too large to fit through the opening. It looks like nylon spiral wrap will replace the grommets adequately I am using AN/JIC fittings. In fact the fitting on the fuel cut off valv...

So it can be done remove center silencer and rear Y pipe unbolt rear propshaft flange Make a couple tools to push the hose out of the rearmost clip swear profusely The SS hose I chose is exactly the size of the original, but won't go through the grommets I pulled the old hose out from the front afte...

Steering wheel has mildew.

One might want to get a whiff before calling it too cheap

Well, I never liked that yellow plastic line at all. The black cover splitting off looks like hell. Ethanol eats all sorts of stuff, and wreaks havoc on old small engines[lawn mowers and the like] so I fell it ought to be replaced I don't really want a joint underneath the car, although the part whe...

It 'looks' like if I remove the center exhaust I can reach most things. Hardest part looks to be the entrance into the boot area

I have searched but only gotten partial answers. Has anyone replaced the entire fuel line? I am thinking I might be able to cut it and fish the new one through with the old one, but it is hard to tell how many clips are there. These are my worst case thoughts: Remove the exhaust to be able to reach ...
