In the process of replacing the rear beam susp. bushings, then the brake lines... I decided to replace the rusty/nasty looking fuel lines in my Rabbit, going from the fuel pump to the accumulator, and from the accumulator to the hard line that goes to the engine. Both of these are braided steel lines, about 2 feet in length. from the fuel pump is a banjo fitting, and to and from the accumulator is a screw-on fitting.

I priced out new ones - way too expensive. I have a call into BSI about some used ones, and they're working on getting some together.

My question is, would it be reasonable to make some lines using some of the braided material and fittings (aeroquip/earls) and make it work. My only concern is I've never done it before, and would there be fittings to fit a VW - or does that even matter?

Any idea on approximate cost? Just want to know what my options are.

Thanks,
PJ
