I missed the ferry i was booked in for after a leak in the same place
where it goes over the axle, i cropped out a section and fitted 10mm
copper pipe and compression fittings with the intention of replacing the
whole pipe later, lol just been looking at flareing tools and fittings
on ebay for the job.
It also caused severe lack of grip as it was spraying towards the rear
tyre.

Subject: [928uk] Leaking fuel lines - help
FROM PAUL@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
(you can see how I would vote)
Hi, help and advice please
Fuel lines corroded badly and now have sprung a bad leak just in front
of
rear wheel where there is a clamp holding the lines to the body.
Any advice on how best to sort these lines please ? Copper pipes ? what
fittings to use ? Etc. etc.
Looks like a hell of a nasty job to replace the whole lot so I will cut
out
and replace the bad parts.
Very much suggest everyone checks these lines because they corrode badly
on
almost every 928 I've looked under. Clean them up now and spray with
Waxoyl
before it happens !
P.S. Engine does not run too well with a leak under there !!
