Fuel delivery questions, getting an old car back on the road.

1. Request Recommendations on cleaning or purging old fuel lines.


2. How long can the rubber lines (they sell at the parts stores) reliably be for a daily driver on today’s ethanol fuel? (From hard line to carb)

3. How far should the fuel line be (besides as far as possible) away from the exhaust manifolds as it routes up from the fuel tank?

4. Can I run more than one fuel filter in series?

5. Can I place one filter not far from exiting the fuel tank?

6. It gets to 112 in the summer here, anything extra to the line (like a wrap??) that I can do to avoid vapor lock?

7. If I add a phenolic spacer between an aluminum intake and a carb-are there any precautions that I should take?

8. Thank you. Thank you! Thank you!! For your time

9. (Oh by the way) If I bend replacement metal lines-what do I do to ensure the threads don’t leak since someone told me not to use Teflon tape.
