    Default Interior gas line

    Upon removing the carpet from my son's '81 Capri, it looks as though the gas line is run along the outside edge of the passenger side floor. I'm replacing the line anyway. Should I run the new line under the car for safety?

    I wouldn't want a gas line running thru the interior of my car, or my sons. Seems like it would be a good idea to move it back to the exterior.

    The early cars run the rear brake line inside the passenger compartment. Runs along the passenger side and then cuts across and exits out near the rear control arm area. My 79 PC has the rear brake line inside. No need to move it or mess with it as long as it is in good condition.

    There are NO gas lines inside the passenger compartment.

    Thanks. Yep. Rear brake line now that I took the time to look at it. I just assumed the brakes lines were run under the car.
