[T3] 72 fasty update-OE fuel line source?-Cleaning fuel pumps?

["incynr8" <incynr8@lawngnome.org>]

Well, the engine turns, change doil, pulled iky Champion plugs and
chucked em, some signs of oil, not super bad. Flooded cyls with marvel
mystery oil for safety, and waited.....Later turned by generator nut
with out plugs, smooth, and threw up all the marvel just fine.. Fuel
system....Pulled line from tank, thought I was draining about a gallon,
from the slow sludge I got, then it cleaned it self out, ran clearer,
clearer, faster.....and b00m, my own valdez. I still stink, hate
spilling the stuff, must care for the earth......Love cars, hate
gas......Turns out 5 gallons of turpentine came out, the least fun I've
had in ages. Time to blow out tunnel lines, FI loop, and change out all
the front hose for now. All hoses are actually nice shape, just changing
for good measure. Any source for OE style hose? It is 7.5 mm ID right?
Also, highly considering cleaning fuel pump before starting it....Is
this pretty simple, or do I risk damaging o rings or other parts? I
think I'm down to attending to fuel system some more, add battery,
replace cleaned aircleaner, and cross fingers. Al 72 fasty/
