    More info would be good...
    Year and type of car for one.
    Some more background on what you think your problem is would also help.

    97 Buick regal. Basically need to have the parts before I work on it since the lift my bud has won't be open until 9. I'm wondering if I can access the lines off the gas tank and also how to replace the nylon lines coming from the fuel rail to the metal rail. The nylon line looks almost like its heat shrinked. Basically just need a part list for fuel lines from gas tank to front. Not going to worry about replacing the evap line though

    I believe Dorman has kits which you should find at the parts store to replace the line to rail fittings.
    Look behind your rear seat in the trunk, there will be access panel to get at the pump and lines that connect at the fuel tank.

    I'm looking at using metal lines right now but am not sure how to connect from a metal line to the lines at the gas tank side and how to connect the metal lines to the nylon lines that go to the fuel rail. That is a better way of wording it haha

    You'd have to drop the tank to gain access to all the fuel lines.
