Thank you David. I will be replacing the segment of the original fuel line. Firewall connector is already out, but is in good shape: not brittle. I have a Van-Cafe replacement connector ready to replace it. The experimentalist in me (frustrated lab rat that now must do his chemistry and toxicology on the computer screen) could not resist a chance try something new.
