Just bought a '79 924, and am starting the process of catching the "little things" that need to be done. Top of that list are the steel braided fuel lines. Several of mine are weeping fuel at the crimped ends. I've found options on google but wanted to know if there was a brand or retailer that sells a good replacement set of the braided fuel lines.

And yes, I did search the forum, but didn't find any info on who makes/sells these hoses.

If you dont plan to drive the car very soon and you’re interested in the EFI kit i’m making, the fuel lines are included in that kit.
I plan to start shipping them in the first quarter of next year.
They look like this:

i use HEL braided lines on my 79' as my old one had a nasty leak (i dont like fires while im driving)

they fit alright but are a little short, look great too

anyway if you get these make sure you get the right ones for your 924, they changed to solid steel lines in 80' with different fittings on the injectors

this link is for the pre 80' flexy lines

Another vote for HEL lines, not used on my 924 but have used them on my Tiger Super 6 and can vouch for the quality.
