FD Fuel Line replacement
Hi Guys, my FD fuel lines melted and now i need to replace them. So I need some help in knowing which fuel lines goes to where and what type of hose I should get. Hopefully the photos help in better understanding what fuel lines Im talking about.

I believe 1 fuel line goes to the charcoal canister and the other two go to the fuel tank.

The smaller line goes to your rear brake calipers.

Do you or anyone else know if a SAE J30R9 is the type of hose I should be going with.

just take the opportunity to upgrade to a braided ptfe hose. Unless your not going to increase power one day then yes I believe 5/16 standard rubber fuel hose is adequate.
