How strong is JB Weld

[Huw Powell]

If JB Weld failed on a faucet you'd put a bucket underneath it.

Your oil pan and fuel tank don't move and have no pressure issues to 
contend with.

This fuel application has relative motion between the parts and CIS runs 
75 PSI at the pump.

The better fix as mentioned is fuel-rated hose, double hose clamped.

If the banjo fitting (the metal) itself is broken I bet Chris Semple 
could come up with a repairable used hose assembly.
