1992 Volvo 240 sedan - fuel line leak (spray!) 200

based upon reading your request i conclude you have no idea what you are doing.
before you get in a snit this is said as my perception not judgement. fuel lines are dangerous to fix badly.

your line is nylon. it handles pressure really well but can be slit in a heart beat. the fitting coming out of the filter and the fitting into the rail at the block are press in. this is not just squeezing with your hand while holding the line with the other hand. there are tricks to unite these two elements. frankly i think in your case its a bridge to far so i offer a simpler solution which will work as well.

the link above is for fuel rate hose which will slip over the filter fitting once you cut off the nylon and the same at the rail end. two "good" made for fuel line hose clamps will secure the hose to these fitting. snake the line under the car following the original pathway securing the new line to the frame with tiny cable ties where applicable and you ought to be back on the road in no time.

if you insist upon mating the fittings to nylon line reply as such and i will provide a method to do so.

ebay is also a good source for nylon fuel line
