Need to replace fuel lines
 
Starting work on a 1979 928S Euro. It's been sitting for at least two years. I'd like to replace all the fuel lines. I see our sponsor here sells the high pressure lines by size. Does anyone have the info on how much of what sizes I would need? Or is there possibly a kit available?

Thanks!

In addition to Pelican, I believe Greg Brown sells very nicely made hoses (but $$) otherwise call Roger at 928srus he can set you up too.

Thanks for the info, I'll give Roger a call tomorrow. Other than fuel lines, I plan on a general tune up - plugs have been burning very rich, cap is corroded, rotor needs replacing. There is also a surge at idle and the alternator needs some work. At idle it is just over 12 volts. Maybe the surge and voltage are related? Or perhaps I'll be replacing vacuum lines as well?

This is a change from my usual of fixing farm equipment - glad this forum exists!

I wish I had a place to use and one of the small Porsche tractors, but I doubt any are not in collector hands at this point. Talking about little one, not this big one btw.

I have the place to use the tractor...I own 3 as a matter of fact. Could I afford a Porsche Tractor? now that's another matter entirely.

Maybe this one would be OK?

One I restored about 10 years ago, a Porsche diesel would look nice parked next to it.

Here is a Real Junior...not sure about the pic associate with BJ Auction...does not look like a junior to me. Bonus, what is the green car behind the "Junior"?

Where on earth did you find the pedal Tractor!!? I want one!

Jhw-
Looks kinda like a Spitfire to me. Could be a Sunbeam, though.

I showed my wife the website... she's buying me the toy Porsche tractor for my upcoming B-day! I plan on hanging it in the man cave, far out of reach of the grand-gremlins

Wild, and crazy.
