As the search function is kaputt at the moment  I need a bit of help.

Looking for a picture(s) of how the brake and fuel lines run under the car including around the diff area on LX hatchbacks.

I need to determine which body clips are used for what lines as well.

The UC I have is different around the diff area so cant copy that.

The LX parts book is very vague and doesnt bunch the whole lot together neither.

Pictures that will be helpful are

- under the car (layout of brake line, fuel line and tank return line in relation to each other).

- where all the lines turn up into the diff cavity (around the right hand spring area) from running along the floor area.

- in the diff cavity area with the tank installed.

- the angled firewall under bonnet where they run up to the right front chassis rail.

Any help would be most welcome.

Cheers.

Here is a thought, if some one local has a car (four doors are the same) that I can come look at then PM me.

I might have some pics that will help. I recently took all mine off and took some pictures, the car is on a rotisserie so all my pics are with the car upside down

[slar]

I would be interested also in see those pics

[tuxedoss]

Here are some pics I took, The thin pipe that is cut off in the engine bay and also you can see at the fuel tank end is a fuel return line that's only fitted to cars with factory air so you probably don't have this one.

Appreciate your picture link Brett but it doesn't open, is this photo bucket folder private or locked?

Hi all.  To save reinventing the wheel just wondering if any of the above photos and or any other photos could be uploaded.  As per the original post I'm trying to get a better handle on how the lines run, particularly over the diff and where hard lines finish and hose takes over around the fuel tank area.  Thanks in advance.  Cheers Ron

Hi Ron, I replaced my factory fuel line with a 3/8 hardline to suit my high performance stroker.I have the original up for sale. It's steel and still in original shape. Make me a low ball offer if you need it,

Thanks Steve, but I too am running 3/8 fuel line and replacing all other lines with new tube.  The problem I have is that I wasn't smart enough at the time (still not most would say) to take sufficient pics of the routing, particularly the line from the canister and the lines from the tank to the vapour separator etc.  Cheers Ron

[Cook]
