looking for the main and return line that runs from the fuel filter to a hard line that goes into the engine compartment. I need the whole thing flex line and hard lines, because they can't be separated. Can be out of a cougar, thunderbird, or mark VII

I'm not sure what repair part you need but you might be able to fix it with fuel injection hose and clamps.If you can't find the clamps I'll send some to you.

Should be 5/16" or 1/4" line. As far as the flare tool goes, I personally have never seen a tool that would put the ridge on the line to plug into the stock plastic line, i know they make one dont know where to get it. If there is a napa near by or another good parts store go ask about a repair kit for the fuel line. See what they have.
The Car-go here can get hard line in sections with the ridge on it. I got an 18" piece to fix my line I know they have longer not sure how long though.

im not messing with the connections into the nylon lines those sections are good. return is smaller then the main line so i think im gonna bring them in and tell them i need to make new ones of these!

So how are you going to connect to the stock section then? Rubber hose and clamps? Compression fittings would work well.

flare the lines and use fittings. I might end up doing a rubber line as a temp situation so i can start the car and move it around, cause im to scared to start it now as risk of fire

I'll be stripping the Sport Bird in 2 weeks, and the fuel lines might be good. Can you wait that long? I'd take $20 plus shipping for all the line you need, I want to see you get the Super Vader on the road.
