Default Fuel line location

I am looking for the fuel line under the hood on a 99 TL. Any help would be appreciated. Picture would be even better since I am not a very car kinda guy.

Thanks,

Chris

I've never seen a TL engine bay before. Snap a photo, attach it, and one of us will point it out.

If it is anything like my car, there are several fuel lines. Is it the return line or the feed line?

Why do you need to know where the line is on a TL, anyway?

Because I am installing a device that will save me about 10-20 percent on my MPG. I put one on my Honda Element and it went from 20 MPG to 23 MPG.

I need the feed line location. I will post a pic tommorow. It is the other halfs car and it is hard to get her to sit still.

Sounds like a ghetto fuel pressure regulator set to choke the engine. If you blow the engine from running too lean, you'll know why.

Nope it is a device that fits over the fuel line, no cutting, pinching, or shocking. It is magnets and it polerizes the molucues in the gas and makes it burn cleaner. So the end result is better emmisions, more power, and less fuel wasted so you get more MPG.

Increased 10 percent on my Honda Element, more power and less RPM's at highway speeds. I used to get 21 MPG in the Element. Now, driving the same I get 23 MPG. The tank is 13 gallons, that is 26 more miles PER tank I can go. Yea sounds like it does not work to me to . With gas the price it is I will take 26 more miles per tank. I will keep you posted on the Acura.

Interesting... Is there a website for it? I'd like to run that by my physics teacher.
