Does anyone have an idea how to convert my 99 RCSB 4.3 fuel lines to an LQ4? they don't fit right, and I've already had someone say to get some high pressure rubber hoses and triple clamp them and it should be fine, but i thought I'd ask the experts. any info would be great Thanks!!!
Maybe replace them with steel braided lines, or stock lines out of a RCSB with the 4.8 or 5.3?
Stock lines would be best if available. I've done the fuel injection hose on two trucks without issue. Braided would be better. Get aeroquip or russell ends and you can bolt it all together. NAPA carries some hose connections.
ok i guess they'd bolt up to the fuel pump and run all the way up to the engine then huh? any idea how much they cost?
I'd just call a salvage yard and see how much they'll let you pull them for. Maybe Austin, HWYAUTO, can get you a set.
if you keep it all GM than there is very little chance of a failure, thats good piece of mind when putting your kids in some hybrid. (like all my trucks :eek: )the stock fuel lines are great, i have never seen a warranty
failure yet. used low mile hose works great...

Your best bet would be to hook it up to the fuel filter under the driver side on the frame rail, assuming they are quick disconnect lines or bolt together.Quote:
