Dear All
I finally managed to drop the transaxle out at the weekend, and whilst waiting for the replacement (99p on eBay auction, which will negate the cost of the new mounts !) I have decided to have a shot at the MOT very advisory, being the hard fuel lines are seriously corroded either side of the rear axle. The lines running towards the front seem fine, so I only really need to sort this section, but it seems you can only buy the full hard lines, and that means dropping the axle to replace which I would rather not get into - every time I undo something, something else invariably breaks !
I am sure I saw a post on this months back, mentioning kunifer lines etc., but can't find anything using the search.......
Does anyone know of suitable flexible replacement lines to replace the section over the axle, or a way of doing this without dropping the axle ? I am tempted to try and get someone mobile to do it for me, but don't know if anyone will touch it ? Does anyone know someone reliable in Thanet who might take this on - car is stuck at my in-laws as it jammed in 3rd gear on the way down there the other week......
Cheers
