How to replace fuel hoses on fuel rail.
Are some of the hoses on fuel rail just push fit on to the barb with no clamp.

Porsche used single use hose that once pushed onto the barb had to be cut off. Porsche does not sell the hose separately, but you may be able to find some at a hydraulic line shop.

JFP is correct on the type of Hose (Actually TUBE) that is used. It is one time only, once installed it cannot be removed and used again. It must be cut back IF there is enough extra length.

This is called Polyamide tube and I keep this in stock. I am happy to send whatever length you need. I must caution you, to do this repair properly you need the proper tools & holding fixtures. It is not an easy task.

For info, please email me ONLY. I do not answer pms as I like to send photos with my replies and cannot with a pm.
