    what broke? or is it just leaking? if its leaking, you can replace the O rings inside the line.

    to swap that line..you have to drop the tank, sometimes the subframe etc etc..it's not easy. Swapping the end would be easier

    You could use rubber fuel injection hose to fix it. I did that on my buddies pa a while back and double clamped it on each side.

    Autozone sells them the feed line elbow for 20-25 bucks I had to replace my gf's the oring was gone pouring gas into valley got lucky and never had a problem or fire. They also sell the return line elbow like your needing for about the same price. Make sure you remove the OEM clip as the dorman piece has its own quick-disconnect built in. You just splice into the stock line with a double ended barbed fitting and your done. It takes some elbow grease to get the barb in the line so I highly doubt you'll blow it loose at WOT.

    I'm guessing you used the repair kit? I have the exact same problem, and I also had the wrong kit from AA; did the 800-059 from Summit fix the problem?

    It was the return line. I was thinking it was 5/16 on the return and 3/8 on the feed.
