I have a brake reline coming up. What size would my brake and fuel lines be for a 2002 Honda Accord Special Edition 4 cylinder automatic tranny?

I think brake lines are 3/16....are fuel lines 5/16?

*I plan to use copper-nickel lines for both.

 

why are you replacing the brake lines and fuel lines with copper or changing them at all, are they leaking, if not don't touch them brake reline means to replace the brake pad and rotors. or rear pad and rotor/ drum and brake linings. where did you get this info.?

 

Ooops....I thought that was called "a repad." LOL.

Seriously I had never heard changing pads and rotors or shoes and drums as a "reline." I always heard maybe "brake job" or "putting new pads or rotors on." So I figured a "reline" was new lines. Thank you for the correction.

My brake lines are very corroded, ditto with the fuel lines. I'm just not too keen on waiting for a rupture to happen. I live in WV....rusted lines are a thing here.

That's why I want to fix the problem now.

 

oooppps did not know how bad the lines get back there, sorry i don't know what size lines you have, need to get a tube gauge to measure the outside diameter of your lines, then purchase at an auto parts place or get them direct from honda, then they will have all the bends needed.

 

Ya man, you had me wondering! LOL *I should have been more clear perhaps, I wasn't counting on people not understanding it was due to rust.

Tube gauge? That's a good idea! I have a caliper I can use (if I can find it).

I'm not a fan of pre-bent lines, those are really expensive but they are tempting. I think I am going to have to remove things like my evaporative canister and so forth, to get to the brake lines above it.

Are you aware of a step-by-step guide on how to do this job or a youtube video? Where the tubing attaches in the engine bay, how to remove the plastic tray under the car, and removing the evaporative stuff are my biggest concerns.
