Fuel rail leak

My initial test run set up to try and find the leak. This was before I searched it on Stromtrooper, which of course gave me all the answers.



The offending clamps.


New parts, less than $2.00 from the local parts store.




Probably a $300 dealer fix I bet.

Just replaced my leaky line with Motion Pro Premium Fuel Line in 5/16". Did not remove any additional screws, the MP line was flexible enough to get on there. I used spring clamps because that is what was available; time will tell how well they hold up.

Edit: Time has told. Do not use standard fuel line for this repair. You need Fuel Injection rated line and clamps. My Motion Pro fuel line exploded like a water balloon yesterday. I now have 5/16" i.d. Prestone FI fuel line and the appropriate clamps installed.
