Cobra Jet Fuel Lines
Have any Factory Cobra Jet owners experienced original fuel line leaking
problems. My 2010 has developed this issue. Could be related to minimal usage. My 2012 is raced every summer - noticed some wet areas at connections after recent engine reinstall. Using VP-16. Replacement of all lines is being considered for fire prevention. Teflon lined fuel lines have been suggested. Any info is appreciated. Check yours after inactive periods. Turn on the fuel pump and inspect before "fire"ing it up!🔥 Douglas Jonak |

Re: Cobra Jet Fuel Lines
leakage can occur in any flex line - not only CJ's. I have turned fuel pump on in Spring and had a puddle under Jeep - I check before firing up.
Don't know how old the line was - but everybody should check after down time or in Spring. |

Re: Cobra Jet Fuel Lines
Watson Racing sells stainless hard lines, then you only need braided style lines for making short connections .
