    Hey all, So I haven’t. He led regulator since I replaced the pump and there was no issue with it. I don’t have a fuel pressure gauge with me atm but it seems to lose pressure quickly. Like, I can park for 10 mins and if I try to start without going KOEO to let pump prime it will crank but not...

    Fuel filter feed line

    Ok, lines are in truck is running. I ended up bending the metal tube for the filter and cutting it about 2” long and connected it to the nylon line. Was kind of a pain getting the compression fitting tigh bc there was no room. Also, for some reason it took me an hour to get the fuel pump...

    Fuel filter feed line

    Ok so I got the filter quick connect out and put the new filter in place and connected the outlet side. I cut the quick connector off of the fuel feed line from the pump at the front of the tank and used a nylon to nylon coupler to join the new nylon line. I then tucked the nylon line over the...

    Fuel filter feed line

    I looked at Nickel Copper but the problem I found was that the pre flared lines are flared for brake applications not the gym filter - the flare for the gym filter has a rubber seal on the flare. Only the Dorman steel had that.

    Fuel filter feed line

    Actually the line on the fron side of the filter is quite clean. The challenge is that there is not much room to operate up in there.

    Fuel filter feed line

    It is a little hard to get because of space and because the disconnected line flips around. I am going to use a pair of locking pliers or something to hold the line still that should allow me to get in there with the disconnect tool. I will try pushing in on the tube as I go. The problem is i...

    Fuel filter feed line

    The tank is already down as I swapped out the fuel pump. The problem I am having is the line that goes from the front of the gas tank to the filter snapped when I was removing the filter. The entire steel piece from the filter back was rotted so there is nothing to tie the nylon tube into. So I...

    Fuel filter feed line

    I managed to get 10 feet of 3/8 nylon hose from Napa. I also got Dorman 800-157 fuel line repair which is 30” of steel tube with the filter flare fitting on one end. As of now I cut the vinyl supply line from the pump and joined it to the vinyl line I bough with a vinyl press on connector. I...

    Fuel filter feed line

    Ok, so I've run into a problem. I cannot get my hands on any 3/8" nylon fuel line. I am going to have to go steel. So my plan is this: I will cut the connector off of the fuel line at the front of the tank. I will run a steel line from the filter to the front of the tank and connect the plastic...

    Fuel filter feed line

    Well I need some way to connect the nylon hose to the filter. Is there a fitting for vinyl tubing so that I can connect it directly to the filter? Filter has a flare m16 end with a o-ring

    Fuel filter feed line

    Ok, so here is my plan: the plastic tube that goes from fuel pump to front of tank - I am going to cut off the connector at the front of the tank. Then I am going to use a union to join that tube to a new piece of vinyl tube that goes up to the filter. I will also buy a short piece of 3/8” metal...

    Fuel filter feed line

    Yes, it has that screen and that is exactly what it is for. For the Evap lines I just disconnect the 2 evap lines from the tank and pop them out of the clips that run along the side of the tank and that way I don’t even have to touch the evap cannister. I tried removing lines from canister but...

    Fuel filter feed line

    It is an 03 - and you are exactly right. It is the short tube that goes from the fuel connection at front of tank to the inlet of the filter. I am just changed the fuel pump and just have the tank supported by a jack so it’s no problem to get it out. I will get the tube out and see if it is good...

    Fuel filter feed line

    Can’t get a pic at the moment. It is steel. Sit is a short steel line that goes from the fuel supply line to the fuel filter. It connects to the filter and to the fuel supply line from the fuel pump sending unit.

    Fuel filter feed line

    I can do a union but the issue is that the fuel line goes bends just before the end and I am not sure I can make the bend. Also, the line going into the filter has an o-ring seal on the end. Can you get flared male ends with o-rings?
