Changing fuel pump line question - 1970
Attempting to switch over to steel fuel from rubber. There is a continuous flow of fuel coming out. Is this normal? Was thinking pump diaphragm would stop it? Guess I need to plug the line from the tank. Any help appreciated. Wifey doesn't like garage filled with gas...
Thanks

From the Fuel Pump to carb. I didn't crimp the back main line(tank is full and line is old). Instead I took off the "S" hose from main line, connected a new 3/8 fuel hose, and inserted a spark plug/clamp to stop fuel flow. I will order a new "S" hose and fuel pump elbow fitting to make all this work.

In addition, crimp the line as stated.
