Fuel Lines

[Jonathan Farrugia]

when doing this kind of repair i would recommend using the proper fuel
injection hose clamps.  these clamps are smooth through out the entire
radius of the clamp.  unlike worm gear clamps were the notches in the
clamps can cut into the hose when you tighten the clamp.
