Put the red cap back on before trying to push the fuel line back into place along the frame. Fuel filter should go before the fuel pump, don't rely on that carb filer.
Here is a question: Does the height of the fuel line you run, in relation to the tank and fuel pump, mater? To save hassle I'd like to run my new lines over the inner fender to the mechanical fuel pump in my 73 Torino. This rout will bring them over the height of the fuel pump. and back down to it. Does that even matter? Please help.
From the frame to the fuel pump. My line keeps kinking. Starts out just like yours. Nice long loop but after a month or two it starts to flatten our in the middle of thar loop. Aggravating cuz it's not fun replacing all the time
The fuel pump line to carburetor should have been run directly to the carburetor without the inline filter. Fuel line should be on the inside of the alternator mounting bolt. Not that it matters now, 2 years later.
Thanks Kevin that was a big help for me . Also need replace my carb.
Thanks for the vid, Kev!

Noticed that too. Should have put a filter on the frame from tank line to frame -pump line where the gentle hose went.
I use to run 3/8s on all my 350s back in the day, good deal
Thank you for that feedback
Ima do that
Could not help but notice your lines did not match up after installing the new sending unit. Will that always be the case or did you correct the unit?

I was unable to find any hard pipe fuel line on your website. Can you help me out with a link? I'm searching for a 1977 sbc if that matters

You're correct. Hard to believe so many "experts" are better suited for other jobs.
How similar is this on the same years of Ford pickups
I ain’t got no air pushing into the tank to send out fuel how can I fix this for my ‘71 c10
So he didn’t need to replace the return line since it’s not needed anymore right?
as long as You have access to the gas tank take it out to have it boiled out who knows how crud and smutz it picked up in 50 years
Hell relocate it outside !!!!!👍🏻
Anyone got a video for 81-87 1500 4WD for this?
He reminds me of Bob Ross. Should he have replaced the fuel pump ?
Ya he does lol!
so I also noticed he didnt replace the return line. why does my 72 have Three lines ?
Would it be the same process for a 1963 chevy truck
Hi Rico, the process is the same but there will be some variances since your truck is of a different generation.
flex rubber pipe doesn't need to be stainless braided?
What do you need the fire extinguisher for
All that start up proved was that there was fuel in the bowl... it would've started even with no lines.
I don't take the Off and blow them out until after until after I get installed
