I need to replace the rubber fuel line from the bulkhead towards the engine on my V5 STI type R as the original is perished
I have the correct sized pipe (i think), but its very stiff to get on, so what are the best ways of making the rubber a little easier to work with?
Hair dryer?
Heat gun?
Just persevere??

Thanks

Dip it in BOILING water, shake quickly and push it on. Helps if you can warm the metal spigot too.....heat gun?

I'd second the boiling water method, should soften enough to stretch the little bit needed.
