I don't know about the DC cars, but there will be a steel fuel line which runs 
thru the tunnel from front to back. On FI cars this is an 8mm OD line. I 
suspect that it is somewhat smaller on your car. You should check lines at 
both the front and rear to get an idea of what you need.

OTOH, I seriously doubt if the rubber lines are your problem. Nevertheless, if 
they are old, replacing them is cheap insurance.
