Dumb question.. I know (i drive a diesel tho so cut me some slack)

but do we have to get a line made by napa or something?
- If we have to get a line made by napa does anyone know the correct size it should be? Is our best bet just to take them the old one?

Does anyone have a good quick fix?

Thanks!
The 1985 230E should have a fuel pressure regulator. Here is a picture of my 190E 2.3 that has a short metal fuel line from the fuel distributor to the fuel pressure regulator. Is it like this one?
