Where is the best place to get a replacement? Does the average auto store keep this sort of this in stock? Thanks. | | |

Use a piece of string to measure your fuel line or tale yours off and take in to match up at the parts store.
There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.

I would measure, buy one a little long and get a compression fitting for the fuel pump end. Get a spring tube bender and start bending at the carb end. After you work your way to the fuel pump, cut the line to length. You can also start at the fuel pump, working to the carb. Another option, if your existing line is in good shape is to get a compression fitting and cut off your existing line inside the flare (that's why there's a groove in the wheel on a tubing cutter). Personally, I wouldn't buy the stainless steel tubing, it's harder to work with than standard steel.
