Fuel Line Leak

Post by madisonguy »

I was working on taking care of an antifreeze leak when I set my trouble light down (apparently right on top of a fuel line). Now I have a fuel leak on the plastic line just before the connector to the metal line on top of the engine. Is there a repair for this line? It appears that the line goes back to the tank. I am hoping it doesn't have to be replaced all the way back. Please help.

Is the line that's leaking one of the two plastic ones that connects to the fuel rail? If It is, they sell a patch kit with that selection of line and a barb to connect It to the old line in the HELP! section of most parts stores. Just be sure to get the right size for the line in question. The send line and return lines are different sizes.
