There was no 1969 "super beetle" only the standard. And which line are you replacing the hard line or the flex line?
Remove the line that goes to the Carb. Carefully crank the engine over and see it fuel is being pumped. Just because the pump is new doesn't mean it was installed correctly.
I disconnected the fuel line from the fuel pump, attached a two-foot section of fuel host to the fuel line, then blew compressed air through the line until I could hear bubbles coming from the fuel tank. Then I draped the hose over the back bumper, and let the dirty fuel drain through the system into a spare gas tank. When clear gas was coming out, I reconnected the fuel pump, changed the fuel filter, and it was good to go.
If I had to replace a fuel line I would get a replacement out of a car in a wrecking yard and install that.
Most likely the clamp on the fuel line has worn through the line - check the fittings and perhaps replace fuel line
in the carburetor by the fuel inlet line.
No you do not.
NO!
VERY CAREFULLY - If you break the quick disconnects on the fuel lines it will cost you a fortune!!! 500.00 + because they have to string NEW FUEL LINES. - I have replaced the fuel filter a couple of times - I have a 2000 beetle with a 1.8 Turbo. The fuel lines are pressurized so you will need to relieve the pressure before you try and remove the filter or you will get a face full of gas. The filter comes off by pushing the fuel line toward the filter and then pushing the quick release button on the fuel line. The fuel line should then decouple - the filter lives under the car near the right rear tire (just in front) Good luck and be careful
The fuel pump for the Cadillac Eldorado with 500 ci engine is located on the left side of the engine block. There are two bolts that hold it in place. There is the fuel line from tank ( fuel pump inlet) line , vapor return hose and fuel pump to carburetor line( fuel pump outlet.) 1974 fuel pumps also have a fuel filter in the pump.
Located on the passenger side, under the vehicle, in front of the rear tire. It is held on by a large hose clamp. Disconnect the plastic fuel lines by depressing a small rectanular tab on the fitting next to the filter. Watch for fuel spray when disconnecting the line.
Follow the fuel line from the top of the engine back to the firewall. The fuel line will go to the top of the fuel filter on the firewall.
