i have a fuel leak at the fuel line quick disconnect location where the braided fuel line connects to the tubed fuel line as the line travels down from the engine intake manifold right behind the firewall (driver side).

I search the internet for the replacement. I found the exact part that I needed however they dont have it in stock.


Anyone knows where i can get this fuel line?

Thank you all.

You may have to go with a line that is a little longer from another vehicle. Maybe you can get one made.

You can go to a hydraulic shop and have the line made, but if not, I can see if I have a used one. Is it leaking from the fitting? or the hose itself?

You could also buy a replacement O ring. I recently made my own return system using the feed line as the return. I believe its a 5/16 SAE Quick disconnect female fitting. A local hydraulic shop should have the O Rings in stock.

Anyone knows the the diameter of the Gen 1 fuel line ? I thought it was 3/8" but it seems to be loose. Maybe 5/16"?
