I have a 740 and 940, both 1991, B230FT and wagons.
Both have identical fuel lines.
I can not find a soft (annealed so I can flare it) steel (preferably stainless)
tubing that is 1/2" OD. Also rubber fuel line that is 1/2" ID.
I don't know about other Bricks but both mine use 1/2" rubber from the tank joining to a pre-bent rigid steel line then back to rubber to mate with inlet of the foreward fuel pump. Hosemaster makes some very nice flex stainless steel hoses w/ pipe fittings on each end.

The salt here is just killing my lines. I've been using copper tubing and heater hose but am less than thrilled with those.

I'm in Ontario, Canada but will go where I need to make this work.

Any other options people have used?
