while removing fuel line disconnects right off of the tank I have found the clips in the fitting are damaged. (Was told they are called garter clips). They are the 4 finger type. Does anyone know where I can find some new ones? My local ford dealer told me they are a non replacable part and local parts store told me to go to the dealer. Its on a 94. Thanks

 

Take your broken ones over to
Advnce Auto. Look in the racks for the
kit that has matching white clips.
They have all kinds of kits on the rack.
Ford is useless.

There is a special tool for removing the line.
I used a small screwdriver to push out the leg
as I gently pulled out the hose.

 

cool. Thanks, will try that. so far I havent found any at my local stores but I will travel further to see if I can find them. The guy at ford basically said my car was to old to worry about.
