After changing the engine compartment fuel filter today- the next fitting down on the in line, the yellow fitting was spraying diesel.
So I get the leaking fitting off, haul it to the ford house which sent me to another And I end up buying the entire fuel line to get the fitting I need. ($145)
The lazy guy in me wants to just cut off the fitting I need, put it on the only line and use a hose clamp to suck it down. Problem is, In order to remove it I put a slight cut in the line that I'm afraid will grow in time.
So I'm trying to get the fuel line out that that wraps around the rear of the engine. What a cluster bomb that is. Di I feed it from the top or pull it from the bottom?
Any tricks? Do I have to replace both fuel lines at the same time to make it work? ( they came together in the package)
. Any prompt help would be much appreciated.
Never thought my day of pm'ing my truck was gonna end up like this.
