Fuel Lines - help! - SORTED!!

Trying to remove the main fuel lines from an 1800 GTI (cabby), and standing here scratching my head - all the length of the car then snaking up through the hole in the front chassis member across the bulkhead and up to the metering head - crazy!!

Does anyone know how to do this? Please!!!

HI
JUST DONVERTED MINE TO OTHER SIDE OF ENGINE BAY FOR 16V CONVERSION….WAS QUITE SURPRISED THAT WITH GREAT CARE THEY BEND WELL….RECKON THAT YOU WILL HAVE GREAT DIFFICAULTY WITH ENGINE IN SITU THO….I CUT MINE AND REJOINED THEM… USED 8mm COMPRESSION COUPLINGS FROM LOCAL PLUMBERS….DID PUT A SMALL FLARE ON END TOO FOR GOOD MEASURE….THEY DONT LEAK…. MAY BE WORTH A GO

Thanks for that mate - will try bending and if not a cut and stick job - I thought of cutting in the engine bay ( engine is out ) just before the silly bends but then just in time I realised if I ever have a problem with the joint then I have to take the engine out to sort it! Where did you joint yours? Thanks for the help

Job done!!

No bending or cutting!  8)

Have pics if anyone else finds themselves with this problem!
