Fuel lines? where from?

New March Superturbo needs new fuel lines. Any idea where I can get the pipe and required items to bend it from? cheers!

Years ago I knew a guy who ran a parts shop; he had the equipment in the shop and all you did was take the old one in and he'd make you up a new one.

Tweeks might be able to help with parts if you can make them up your self, others, find the oldest lloking bloke, in the longest established autofactors you can find, usually they know all sorts of tricks like making fuel and brake pipes, and rewinding alternators and stuff.

Take the old one along, and they will probably just glance at it, and make and exact replica, while staring you in the eye and telling you how much more difficult it is than the old days, since all these jap cars came along, and everything went metric, and by the time he has finished his rant, without taking his eyes off you in the slightest, he will hand you the finished article.

You just need some copper pipe and a pipe bender - same sort of thing your local garage uses to make up brake lines.

Having said that, I'm sure a load of thin silicon tube would be much cheaper and easier !
