Too funny, I read your entire thread on Sunday, and ran out to my car to see where my fuel line was running, and sure enough, it's at the factory location, I was so hopeful, then let down. If you look at my first post, I made sure to note "fuel lines are in the factory locations", because of your post, I wish it was that simple. Anyway, I just picked up a carb rebuild kit, new fuel line that will incorporate a pressure guage, so at least once I get her back together, I'll be able to monitor line pressure when she starts to crap out. Thanks for the reply LOL...
