Fuel line repair (engine bay)

Post by kurgan »

6" high pressure SAEJ30R6 hose 6mm bore (non braided type)
3 jubilee clips
6mm to 8mm metal hose joiner
2 x cable ties

Cut solid fuel pipe at fracture using pipe cutter.
Remove clip and cut pipe from hose.
Gently manipulate the solid fuel pipe so it lays against bracket (to allow for cable ties)
Use hot water to soften hose and force onto solid fuel pipe and fasten with clip.
Connect joiner at other ends of hoses and fasten with clips.
Cable tie as shown in pic below
