Recently I sprung a leak in a fuel line just above the banjo bolt on the outlet side of the fuel filter. My original post: http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/index.htm?id=913826&show_all=1
Thanks for your suggestions. Instead of trying to macguyver a splice into the line, I just went to the pick-n-pull and tore the whole line off a donor car. It cost me $10 and would have cost almost $100 at the dealer. It was a nice sunny day, but it has been raining here lately, so just about every car at the p-n-p had a nice pool of sludge underneath it. Nice.
Not in the mood for working on my car these days, I had half a mind to just abandon the old line in the car and just use plastic ties to secure the new one alongside it. But I couldn't face the brickboard after such a thing, so I took the time to get the old line out and clipped the donor line in with all of the factory clips.
My luck is with me, as the car is finally running again with nary a drop of gas to be seen. What's more, I hit the jackpot with a new turbo at the p-n-p, so I grabbed the sway bars for $30. I know the IPDs are a little bit better, but the turbo sways are damn nice, especially considering the money.
