I have had a few people ask me about how I used the Goodyear EFI fuel line on my 94 GT. I decided it may be a topic more people would like to know is an option for their car so I made a small write up with the pics of my setup.
The following worked for me and should work for every other 94/95 5.0 Mustang owner, but I do not take responsibility for any thing going wrong with anyone's car if they choose to go this route and something goes wrong.
I used 1/4" Goodyear EFI fuel line (with the Viton blue lining) with all 4 factory fittings. All I did was cut the nylon off of the 2 metal fuel line fittings on the rail and on the plastic fittings on the hard line from the tank. I do still run the factory fuel rails.
1/4 is a snug fit over all the fittings and I needed to heat the ends of the lines with a blow dryer to slide the lines on; I did not lube the lines because I did not want lube stuck between the fitting and hose for the long run. I just massaged them on then used EFI hose clamps.
HOWEVER, I replaced two EFI clamps with regular clamps and I think I will use regular hose clamps on the other two also since the EFI clamps fit loose. The 1/4" fits so snug I don't think much clamping force is needed, but I didn't like how the EFI clamps bottomed out before I wanted them to on the rail fittings.
I purchased 8 feet total and didn't need all of it. I ran the fuel lines in the same path as the factory lines and only ended up using ~6 feet total. I didn't measure what I had left over so I'm not completely sure. I recommend you measure the length of your fuel lines with string and add a foot to it to be sure you don't end up short. I also recommend buying the line in one length, dont cut it in two at the store. In total I spent ~$30.
I had purchased 5/16" line for the supply side (since the hard line is 5/16"), but 5/16" didn't fit snug on the fittings. After a few measurements, the 1/4" line isn't the bottle neck in the whole scheme of things so I went 1/4" on both the supply and return.
I did not replace the O-rings on the fittings for the hard lines and nothing leaks to date. No smell of fuel and no leaks fuel leaks of any sort. In hindsight I probably should have replaced the O-rings. I may get around to it some time soon just to cover that base.
Google "Good Year Fuel Injection Hose" you can read all about it. It seems like good stuff.
I tired to cover as many questions I thought may pop up, but I'm sure I forgot something so please ask if you have any questions.
