Thread: Fuel line fix

The plastic line needs to be softened up with scalding hot water just stick the end in a bucket of hot water, then shove the doerman barb fitting on the line do the same with the other end. May need to buy 2 kits if you need fittings to put a section of line in to the fuel filter. Ive used them barb fittings before in the engine bay where the line meets up to the fuel rails. Scalding hot water is the key to getting them barbs to fit and not leak later down the road..
