Default Pain in the ***

Well here it goes, while changing my fuel filter I noticed a line was dissconected soI reconnected it to a rubber line that was hanging as well.ThenI noticedanother line that was just hanging there with nothingvisable to beattached to it. ill post a pic. After removing the filterI heard a hissing sound and noticed that the fuel line had a few pins holes in it from rustand was spraying gas all over the place. How hard is it to change a fuel line? is it worth having a shop do it? Also my rearend is leaking fluidI know its coming from the cover but it seems to be coming from elsewere aswell.... the diff is soaked in fluid front and around the driveshaft.

Thanks guys

if it is the rubber portion, just buy some fuel hose and replace it.

I replaced my fuel lines for $80.00 off of a junkyard car when I converted a 4 cylinder to a 5.0. It wasn't too bad but I already had the gas tank and rear end out of the car. If you can afford to go aftermarket I would probably go that route.
