Yesterday while trying to put my my car back together after doing a full PCV and engine seal job, I accidentally bent the fuel line going to the fuel rail/FPR too far and heard a snap and now there is an obvious weak spot in the hose where it kinks when bent. I am afraid I ruined the integrity of this hose and need a fix. The line is part number 30681549, fuel pipe, costs between $120-$170 and a few days turn around.
Is this a nylon hose covered in rubber? If it is nylon could I use a nylon fuel hose union like this?: https://www.amazon.com/Dorman-800-01.../dp/B000CIV4OG They come in 5/16 inch and 3/8 inch sizes, would either size work? I'm going to check the junk yards in my area, but would appreciate any ideas you guys have for a fix. |
