Deteriorating Fuel Lines
Does anyone else have issues on the older cars with their fuel lines developing some cracks and leakage?
No big deal, but it seems to be a repeating problem with mine. Guess I'll just replace everything I can this weekend.

Yes and no; I've had to replace all the rubber fuel/vac/vent hoses on my '79, some because the were getting old and brittle, the others just because they were old.
If you are saying that some that you have replaced are already in need of replacement again, you may have excessive heat from something or may be getting a poor quality product. |

Nope, I've just replaced as needed. Now I might want to inspect and replace as much as I can to avoid problems in the future (like an incinerating car!).
