    Deere LT160 Fuel Line replacement?
    I want to replace the fuel line from gas tank to fuel filter on my LT160, but
    Can't figure out how to get to the line connection at the tank. Can you
    Folks help me with this.
    Thanks,

    Guess nobody knows exactly how... (I don't exactly know what it looks like either) but more then likely its just a simple clamp you must use a pair of pliers on, slide it down and yank on the line to pull it off.

    Briggs-

    Thanks much for answering. Your're right about the clamp I think. The
    Problem is that the connection is somewhere between the top of the tank
    And the body of the tractor under the seat and I can't figure what needs
    To come off to get at it. I guess this is really more of a "body shop" type
    Problem than a mechanical one. It's interesting that I can't find a dealer
    Or independent service guy who will make house calls or pick the thing
    Up, even though the area is crawling with lawn tractors.

    Thanks again

    Probably the tank needs to be dropped if its in such a tight area.
