Anyone have the rubber fuel line that connects just in front of the pass side wheel well blow out? Can't believe there isn't a way to replace this short rubber piece without replacing the whole line that runs all the way back. Any input?

High pressure fuel hose and some worm gear clamps from the auto parts store...

Appreciate the reply. Should I try to flare the ends out a bit so the worm gear clamps can hold the hose better into the hard line, or is there a bit of a flare on it already? Thanks again for your help!

I haven't had my nose stuck up close and personal to the tubing in quite some time...

Certainly a little bit of flare on the metal tube would help, but since the tubing is hard steel, it may not be easy to do.
