Temp capping off fuel lines
Hey Guys,
I'm installing new heads and intake, I've capped off the fuel lines with vacuum hose caps and taped them up with electrical tape.
Is there a better way to do this, as I'm working on the top end when I get time and don't want a puddle of gas under the car.
Thanks
Follow up question, one of lines is a vent line....should this not be capped?

I capped them and the fuel expanding with heat in the tank popped them off and made a mess. Then I joined the supply and return lines with a short piece of hose and some clamps and it was all good.
