I must have damaged the special connector which connects the fuel feed line to the input side of the high pressure fuel pump. It will not clip back on and stay. I've tried using a pick to pull the fingers inside back out to no avail.

I'm having a hard time finding a replacement line or fix it kit, ECS, FCPEuro, rockauto, nobody appears to carry a replacement line


. Anyone have any advice on how to fix this? Know where I can buy a whole new fuel line?

I know I don't want to just cut it off and hose clamp it to the hpfp fuel post.....I imagine future fuel leaks for sure.

 

Ok it might be this one?

Fuel Feed Line R55 R56 R57 R58 R59 - Way Motor Works

If it is, which I'm not sure, anyone know how to disconnect this line on the other end, where it attached to the rigid steel line at the firewall? It says it is a quick connect there but sure doesn't look like one.

 

This is the one you need: 3/2012+ version

You will also need that tool to take it off. https://www.ecstuning.com/Search/SiteSearch/ES4056344/

It will press the side in to disconnect the old line.

 

Oh wow thanks! I went Search by Vehicle>Engine>Fuel> Lines (or hoses) and wasn't there.

I had the little tool, but I think I overtightened it and crushed it. There was still pressure in the line and I couldn't slide the hose forward before pushing in on the tabs.

Thanks ECS.

 

Welcome, glitch in the system and its fixed now. I am here most of the time also to help.

 

Yup it's there now, at the destination of link options I put above. Thanks for doing that for the next gal/guy!
