Fuel Line; Rubber Pressure Line

[JENSSEN]

I was tinkering with the 90 eliminator and decided I was going to fire it up and start down the path of putting it back on the road. When I fired it this odd smoke was coming off the exhaust manifold. I figured just oil from a leaky valve cover,.. But it continued and smelled quite odd.

 

Then I realized the pressure line was sending a nice supply of fuel down to the toasty manifold.

 

That's baaaaad!!! I shut it off RFN!!!!

 

Looked on line for a replacement but haven't been able to locate the part number or stock.

 

 

Help?!?!??!!!??

RFN?

[ComancheKid45]

RFN= Right F'n Now. hahaha

 

can it be custom bent or just replaced with some generic fuel line?

RFN= Right F'n Now. hahaha

 

Highly technical term i see. :laughin:

JENSSEN - if your'e going to use those Canadian technical terms you will have to add footnotes for us ignorant Southern boys.

I just ran into this same issue. Does anyone know where I can buy a new one of these lines? I'm refering to the steel line that runs from the fuel filter to the fuel rail, its steel at the filter, turns into rubber at the rail, the rubber part is the issue.

for the steel line just make it out of brake line and then almost all of you auto parts stores carry rubber fuel line also use fuel injection hose clamps

[jimoshel]

Shouldn't be that hard to get the parts and fabricate one. just make sure you use a hose for high pressure and not regular hose.

But how would i make a high pressure fitting? I realize i can fabricate the steel part but wht about the transition to the rubber hose? I would rather just buy one do to lack of time, but I'm not totally opposed to making something.

Here's how I'm going to do mine: http://comancheclub.com/topic/26803-an-plumbing/

 

As soon as the few remaining projects higher on the list get done.

Thanks, i will definatly look into this. Today the leak stopped? Aftre further review it was plastic push fitting. When I'm ready i will probably do this, i like the idea.
