hi everyone... i just bought a 1994 celica gt and i'm trying to get this thing going...the car sat for two years and i just replaced the fuel filter and still wasn't getting and fuel to the motor...so i bought a fuel pump to replace and i've been having all types of trouble with it! First after removing the 8 rusted bolts...that two snapped and one rounded,then snapped...i was able to remove the fuel pump housing...then it was the two lines that i had to remove...the rubber one came off with no problem...but the one that has the flare nut didn't move at all rusted and stripped i decided that the only alturnitive was to cut the metal line then replace it with a new peice...now its out i have replace the fuel pump...but how should i fix the area of fuel line where the two rusted nuts are?? should i replace just the whole fuel line or do you think that i can just add some type of patch to the line?? thanks for any suggestions!!
