4k fuel lines

[SJ]

To get by until warm weather comes along, you can cut out the leaking
section of fuel tubing. Install a short piece of 150 lb fuel hose. Use 4
fuel hose clamps to secure. Use Fuel hose clamps and not standard hose
clamps.
That should do the trick until springtime.
I did that repair on my 4k, it held up for several years till I sold it.
