HEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPP! Broken fuel line

[knunchakaman]

Is that the line that has the flare connections on the top front of the bowl???
I just found mine to be cracked and leaking fuel all over. I tried to piece it together with a barbed connection and also a piect of 1/4 copper. I couldnt get either fix to hold. too much pressure.....Im wondering where you can get those premade hoses with the aeroquip tag on them. If this is the hose your talking about...you may need a replacement how to ge it working again. Im still looking for a replacement. Was thinking of getting some copper and bending and flaring it into place.

Tried to post earlier but didn't show. Got home around 7pm, for an 90 minute drive, I will explain later. When I left Howard around 4:30 he was putting the dogbox back on and putting tools away. He was very appreciative of the help he got from all of us. I'm glad I was able to bring him the hose and clamps to make the basic repairs. I helped where I could but the area was a little tight for 2 people. The o-rings were shot for the fittings and that is where Marty came to the rescue. He was able to tell us what we needed and helped find an Auto Zone to get them. I know Howard and I want to thank him for his help. Howard is headed for a truck stop in VA and then on to NC to finish his run. Best of luck, Howard. Thanks again, Marty.

I decided to stop for a bite to eat and fuel. I got off at the Catonsville exit of Rt. 695. Pulled into a McD's for chow and sat inside. I have got to be the only fool who can stop to eat and have a "PARADE" decide to go by. Decided that with 2 County Police standing there I shouldn't try to enter parade. After parade, stations didn't have diesel so I had to go up the road to get fuel. AND THERE WEREN'T EVEN ANY CLOWNS IN THE PARADE!!!
