I have a 1995 Honda Accord EX, The gas lines are rusted in several spots, do you know about how much this should cost to replace gaslines. I have had only 1 estimate at $1000.00. My milage is 125,000. I have a V6 motor.

That estimate was for gas lines? They were made of gold? You can take this to a mechanic and have generic lines put in. They take straight tubing and shape them as needed. Consider the age of the vehicle and I am not implying that there is anything wrong with the car. But to put in a $1000 or anywhere close is ridiculous. You can buy a flare tool for under $10 and cut out the bad sections and splice with a flared union. This is no different than working with water. You use fuel line tubing but the job can't be that difficult. I have done this with fuel line and brake lines as well.
