i have a g3 sedan..

so since my car was sitting awhile, the fuel lines corroded a bit and causing leakage underneath.

a friend of mine (honda/acura mechanic for last 7-8 years), recommended i replace with high-pressure rubber lines instead since i want to just replace the whole thing, all 3 lines

couple questions.. has anyone does this?
i know it can handle the pressure, but will the lines fit? i know there's a black plastic runner to hold the lines, and help protect them, i don't think the rubber will fit..

also since the brake lines look like they have some corrosion on them.. should i worry about that getting back on the fuel lines? i would love to replace them, but they aren't leaking right now, and i don't have money for brake lines

or just any and all suggestions?

 

I'd just replace the fuel lines back with stock oem fuel lines.

No need to do the brakes if they're not leaking unless they look like there gonna go soon.

 

Jesse don't worry about it. they'll last for a long time. honda was smart for putting them inside the car. both my DA's fuel lines are in mint shape after 15 & 16 years.

 

yeah i can see all 5 lines right under the car, and they all look corroded.. i'm gonna get under and double check for sure today the extent of the corrosion.. i'd like to get all 3 fuel lines done though..

and do the dealerships sell pre-bent lines?
i know it can be costly to get a shop to do this, and i really shouldn't have to pay someone else to do it

 

Yes, the dealeships do sell pre-bent lines but they're expensive. It costed $92.32 (pipe C) and $86.26 (pipe D) for the 2 brakes lines that I had replaced last year.

 

I did it with high pressure hose and fits perfect on my g2. takes a bit more time but imo its better since they won't rust from salt and etc. plus a lot cheaper

 

yeah those are 2 advantages my buddy said.. plus the rubber is still very durable, and can stand up to beatings also..
i'm going this week to quote out some rubber lines.. know a buddy that could maybe get me wholesale so we'll see what he pulls off..

in all the twists and turns, did you just twist tie it places? i don't want the rubber just to hang, and it won't stay in place like steel lines..
