I am installing a new Aeroquip fuel line on my '86-18C and need to remove the old one. The problem is that the old line was foamed in place under the floor on the starboard side. Tool access to the foam from the tank end and engine bay side is very tight. One idea is to use a drywall keyhole saw to plunge into the foam and try to cut a slot. Anyone have a clever solution...???? :smash:

I dont think it wouldn't hurt to leave it alone,remove both ends put a bucket in the engine compatment and blow the fuel out of the line cut the end off ends and plug the ends with 5200..When i put new fuel line in mine with the deck off it was still a pain in the butt to do..
