[T3] Fuel hose replacement

[Daniel K. Du Vall]

This stuff looks nice but probably has a nice price to match. Any idea the per foot charge?

Subject: [T3] Fuel hose replacement

Well it's been nearly 3 years since we got Clementine back on the road
and nearly 4 years since the first time we cranked her. The last year of
the restoration was spent mainly waiting on the body shop to do their
thing. I've put around 6000 miles on her since mainly driving her around
town and to VW events in the fall, winter and spring not much in the
summer. The trans in her has had a slight noise in it every since back
in high school when I busted the spider gears from popping the clutch
too much. I had forgotten about this since I went 23 years without
driving her but the sound never was bad. the noise here lately has
gotten worse here lately plus there hes been an occasional clunk sound
when I engage the clutch. the clutch was replaced along with the
flywheel being resurfaced when she was apart. Since I have an extra
trans that has a 1/3 of the miles as this one and has not been used
since 1980 and came out of the 72 SB we used for parts we are in the
posses of putting new seals in this trans and swapping it out while it
is still to hot for me to drive it. I'm debating whether or not to
replace all the fuel hoses while we are doing this. There is an ethanol
frindly hose I'm thinking about using made by ACDelco

Not sure if I will go with that or if I will even replace them with no
more miles than it has. They look good but I know that don't always mean
anything. I want to have
