New problem
Today after finally fixing the broken a/c compressor problem, my wife took it for a trial run. As she was pulling in the driveway giving me the thumbs ups up sign i noticed something leaking out back. A fuel line has a pin hole leak in the SOB!!. It's the fuel line just past the fuel filter about a 12-16 inches in length. Does anybody know the part # or does it have to be custom made? I've looked here on Pelican, Performance Products, etc. with no luck. Just found fuel hose that you can buy by the meter. This hose has the ends crimped on there. Thanks in advance.

The easiest way to replace this is cut the crimps LENGTHWAYS with a hacksaw and pry them apart and slip the hose off.
This is because there are nipples underneath, and you really don't want to cut them off, or you will have to replace the entire hard line (I did this once, lol!). Once you've got the old hose off, take it to NAPA and get some fuel hose of the same diameter and get a couple of clamps to go with it, and you should be rockin' in no time
