The fuel line must be made of the same material as the OEM. Disconnect the battery before starting. Remove the fuel tank and start there. If you are lucky and can get a pre-formed line, it is just a matter of removing and replacing. However, you will most likely have to make a new one. Purchase the steel line and with a pipe bender, bend it to fit. You will need to prepare the ends as the OEM ones were. If that isn't possible, ask at the parts store for their recommendations and what they have that will work. Remember, the line will be under a lot of pressure, so you don't want it to come off.
