Fuel line replacement

Post by carlchristianzen »

I've had the misfortune of a rodent chewing through some wiring which I've repaired to discover it also made a small scratched hole in a fuel line. I've got the replacement that includes pressure regulator and 4 way lines with distributor. The lines seem to be shrunk fit, I'm wondering if there's any way to remove and replace just one to avoid replacing the whole 4 way?

It may be a very tight fit but try putting the line in boiling water to soften it up. It may work or may not
