What you just showed will save me over $1200. The local popular repair shop wanted almost $1300 to fix a leak at the filter and on the pipe near the tank.
I’m replacing the fuel line on my 1999 Buick park avenue and my fuel filter is right in the area I need to replace. It’s a screw on fuel filter on one side so I was wondering if you have any advice on anything I could attach to the new line so I can screw the filter in
Mine broke off where the fuel filter nut is on a Chevy astro van...I will have to get new inlets that go into the fuel filter. Any help on where to do so would be amazing.
yea same here, i just cant see myself using stuff used in everyday plumbing for vehicles... The low pressure side for fuel is really low so their fine, but still.
Guess what I found in the storage cabinet? PB Blaster! Left over from years ago when You told me how much you liked it & how well it works. Probably liked JBWeld, too.
Don’t use compression fittings they are not meant for flammable gas/ fuel lines. You need to use flare nut fittings. Next thing that will happen the people watching you will use shark fittings since they are all taking over the Lowe’s and Home Depot stores. Vibration, bumps etc. can cause compression fittings to leak also. And yes all fittings can leak, but use the right fitting. An example is if you went over rough roads, lots of bumps and potholes a leak might develop and if you park your car in the garage running too long with a leak then you might have a huge problem like boom! Best thing is to replace the whole fuel line, it sucks but fuel lines are made for cars nowadays to be one piece uninterrupted.
Any opposition to using soft fuel line? My thought… one it’s easier two it doesn’t need to be hard line because it’s not a lot of pressure and it won’t rust.
i was wondering the same thing... put a new carb in my snowblower but the angle of the fitting was slightly off and theres no extra slack to get it on all the way. I was looking to use this as an extension to add more line instead of replacing the whole line.

Thank you for this tutorial
Can you do that for a 2002 suburban 1500 because my filter is rusted on the fuel lines
Nice video fer!!!👍🏼
Whats that huge rusty line? Leaking on my 2000 integra
Do compression fittings need the little insert for nylon lines like they do for plastic water lines?
Posting a video on that for you now. How to use em
@@FerKurl Thanks!
very good I didn't know anybody did that anymore but I do
Nice Job!

I know auto value stores typically stock a wide range of fuel unions and fittings
But I replaced it today with a rubber ones 🙏🏼
Supper help full thank you
Can you not use rubber line for evap lines? Idk does it carry much pressure?
I like the flare nut and Union more than the compression fitting although they may work

Hiw safe is it to use on fuel line will it ever come loose or slip s
These are the same fittings that come with GM/Ford/Chrysler fuel line repair kits. If installed properly they won’t come loose
What size fuel line bro????
Wow Nice Video Man!
Sec nice vid too
How does the plastic connect in the compression fitting??
Plastic fuel line?

I did it on my suburban years ago and have no issues
Why the heck would you not change it to nylon? No more rust!
First
Im screwed i need that jack u have to get my car above my head
Did ya need a flaring tool?
That is a compression fitting in the video so no flaring need but you can go the flaring route and use unions and fittings
Fun fact, the British call the Farrell
