Re: Stupidity strikes, aka HELP!!



While replacing my fuel pump, I ruined the fuel line at the fuel pump banjo joint
connector.  I was told that these things were not repairable, but I cut off the 
damaged part of the plastic fuel line and stuck the plastic hose onto the brass
connector.  It has worked ok now for several months.  I worry about it though.
The local dealer wants $40+ for a new hose with banjo fittings at both ends.
I think from now on I will pay for an hour's labor to make sure my fuel line
is solid.  High pressure gasoline sprays onto your working environment tend to 
recalibrate your money-saving priorities....
