So close, leaky fuel rail!!

[Zero Signal]

I'm soooo close to getting the car running, yet so far I got everything finished tonight only to find the front rubber tube connecting the fuel rails is punctured

I kept priming the fuel pump to listen for the building pressure before cranking the motor. After about 6 times I heard liquid dripping all over the cardboard I laid out under the car. Of course it's a load of fresh gas. So I relieved the pressure and cleaned up. I'm so annoyed.

Looks like I'll be doing some salvage yard hunting before this weekend. I looked up the ford part number on their site. $710 for the stock fuel rail assembly Just when I thought the $55 I spent for the fuel tank filler neck gasket was bad.

Anyone in southern AZ have an extra fuel rail assembly I they could sell me?

John, just in case you need the info:

Also, there are a couple of 94 and 95's being parted on CL IIRC.

Good luck.

My lower intake manifold is cracked at the coolant temp sensor so I need a new manifold too. Gene from All AZ Ford in Phoenix had both in stock so he's mailing them to my door for a decent price. I just hate waiting a few more days.
