Drip, drip, drip.
After supper I backed the old reliable Corsica onto my car ramps and had a look. The last 14-inch section of original gas line was seeping gas nice and steady.
Ran out and bought some neoprene hose, some clamps, and couplings and spent about an hour wrestling with all these old and new parts in a small puddle of gasoline. (Fragrant!)

Here's the entire piece I replaced.

Here's a close-up.
It doesn't leak anymore but I'm keeping the extra hose and clamps in the trunk just to be sure.

Wow! Is that car from up North? There is just so much rust on it!
Should have been made with stainless steel in the first place. What do the brake lines look like?
Brake lines were completely replaced at no small cost 2 or 3 years ago...
They looked exactly like this.
