Hello Porsche Folks,
As every one knows I've had my Porsche running for about a month. She was running great. Several weeks ago, I had her running in my shop while I was working on my VW Pichup truck, she died. I looked over at her as I was laying on my back working on the truck and copious amounts of fuel were pouring out. In a panic, I jump up smashing my head into the bumper on the truck. I turn the ignition off, and pushed the car out of the shop along with the Cockers. My new Fuchs that I had just purchased off ebay lay next to her. The good news is that she did not catch fire. Please see pictures to see the new wheels and let me know what you think. The fuel leak turned out to be coming from the fuel line leading to the left bank fuel rail. This line I had replaced with new lines that I had a Hydraulic Shop replace the last time I had motor out. So, I dropped the motor for the fifth time. It appears that the shop had used low pressure hydraulic lines instead of fuel lines. I had them replace the lines using fuel lines. Hopefully this will be the last time that I'll have to drop the motor for this issue. I wanted to use braided steel lines but they did not have any that would work. I tried searching the threads but got zero results. I guess I don't know how to use the damn thing.

Look up "BoxterGT" on the forum here he makes them up at his shop. Braided Stainless, or rubber whatever you need.
