get a pick with your finger on the crack and zoom as far away from the crack as possible allowing us to see as much of the rear underside of the vehicle as possible while still being able to see the finger on the crack so we can see exactly where its at in referance to the underside of the car.

see if you can visually follow the line back to the fuel filter, if its coming out of the filterits the supply line.
I just told him which one was which w/o having to go through all that.

its super dark outside now so i cant get the picture.(crappy digi doesnt work well at night with flash.) if you follow the line from the fuel filter down behind the back seats and right when it goes straight underneath the car. right there is the mess. starting right at the snubber for the rear end and going down about 6inches and then straight under the car. that section there. hope that is good enough explanation. ill PM you the pick tomorrow if you still need it.

i think i might. i think what ill do is go buy new line for supply and return tomorrow. its 16.99 for 25 feet. and i have a bender and a flare tool already so it wouldnt be a big deal. since im going this route can you give me a good path to route my lines? i dont want to take them up by the tranny then under the sub frame connectors. i just think thats stupid. unless it has to be that way i kind of want to run it somewhere more suitable.

myself... personally.. I'd get some fuel injection grade RUBBER hose, cut out that bull**** rusted line you have, flair the ends, and clamp the lines on.

that is ofcourse until I could afford some 3/8" steel braided line!

i believe he needs the 1/4 inch guys, if Im not mistaken?, and those particular clamps ,they dont chew into the line.

I have had this setup on my vic for 6 years, the hose may cost you $4-5 a foot, but its worth it. Im sure in 6 years , you will decide on some metal ones, but I still havent made my mind up
