ignore the slanderous implications here...!  the fuel line was rusted
out at the rubber holder one position down from the battery tray - as
luck would have it, I managed to miss the fuel line when cutting out
that tray...

and expensive?  I still am filled with amazement that we can even *buy*
prebent, ready to go fuel lines for 15-20 year old cars!  I'd hate to
try to make one.
