evening all
just wondering if its possible to replace the fuel lines that run from the tank sender underneath the car without removing the tank?
I have solid brake lines running up to the tank then its rubber pipes up the side and on top and they're massively perished and leaking - I'd hate to have to take the tank out so wondering if it's possible or if they're pinched in place by the tank?

I nearly done mine recently but didn't need to.
I think if you loosen the tank strap bolts a bit it might give you more play but basically just fix your new hoses onto the old hoses and pull through.
I'm sure funk-star told me they are taped to the tank so need a fair bit of effort ??

If you smart you will connect the new ones to the old ones and than push them out.
I use a small bolt with out the head to connect them.
For me it was easy job
Edit:
And i didn't remove the tank.
