My MG has been sitting for about 20 years and I am contemplating whether or not to change out the fuel lines. I have already refurbished the tank and plan to order a new pump as well.

Any suggestion on which one to get? Moss/VB? I noticed Moss comes pre-bent while VB is just selling a role of copper line. Is that correct?

Thanks!

Jeremy,

fuel lines should be made of galvanized steel but not of copper as it might harden at critical bents and then might tend to brake occasionaly. So the cupper line looks the way to go on on first glance but be careful, it is not state of art.
If you have a hydraulics shop close to you,ask them for their comment as they also should be able to have a fuel line made for your car and it might be cheaper and more durable than the ones offered by Moss or BV.

I bought the Moss line which is copper and comes wound in a large circle. You have to bend to fit, which isn't hard if you take your time.
