[s-cars] Fuel Lines

[James Murray (QA/EMC)]

Thanks Sean, a few others have e-mailed me suggesting a patch on the
line... I already have one patch and I'm looking to avoid having my
beloved Audi become an "American Patch-Work Quilt" to coin the phrase...
;-) it just doesn't seem right!

So I'm looking for either a source for new lines (cheaply priced) or
else I'm going to have new ones made... 

Cheers, /Jamu.

James:

As I said over on AudiWorld, the lines do not come with the rubber
brackets. 
I'd consider cutting out the bad section and grafting in a piece of
rubber fule grade hose and use crimp-on clamps.
