    I'm sure the book would say to replace the entire return line...$$$

    Are you sure there's a disconnect down under the MC? I'd think it's just a nylon-to-steel "overlap joint" transition.

    Maybe spray half a can of carb cleaner into the line and try to blow some air through it? Or maybe get a tiny little funnel, pour half a bottle of injector cleaner into the line, let sit overnight, then blow it out?

    I was assuming there would be a disconnect down there since all of the transitions were disconnects. If it's not a disconnect then that would make it even harder to try and open it up and test each piece seperately.

    I just checked with the dealer and it seems to be 1 piece and it sells for $103. I'm still going to look into unclogging it before I spend the $ on a new one.

    Does anyone want to buy a slightly used GTP?

    I just changed the return fuel line and I still don't have the power I should have. I do have the correct fuel pressure so it seems that there was definitely some sort of clog in the old line. I haven't had a chance to rip the old line apart to see what the blockage was. I was almost hoping my car would fall on me so I can be put out of my misery.

    Any ideas on what is causing this.
