Default Fuel Pic Request

Does anyone happen to have pictures of the fuel lines as they wrap around the front of the engine up to the fuel rail?

I have the Helm's FSM, but a picture or two would be so helpful.

TIA

BTW--- I have an '85 Iron headed L98. I'm not sure if fuel line placement was moved on different years. I'd prefer some L98 pics, since those are probably the closest to my year, but I'll take a look at any LTx's (or L83's?) you got for some ideas too.

When I get home, I'll show you mine, right where they are squished! I'm working on getting some replacements.

Good luck.

excellent pictures, thanks- just what I was looking for... I got a few questions.

So when the fuel lines wrap around from the bottom of the engine, it's a rubber fuel line?

Makes me think that might be where my problem is...

Also- the line on the left, in the first pic goes through something. Round with a rectangular box on it. What is that piece?

perfect angle agent86...

I now have an exact idea of what I need to look at, and what I'm looking for. Thanks all

I'm determined to fix this stupid fuel problem... Once again I feel that I found the answer. Everything my FSM has led me to has been faulty (meaning the part needed replacement/attention), however, nothing to this point has fixed the issue. It has only succeeded in making my idle worse.
