Return line
 
I have one return line leaking. Instead of buying a kit I want to replace just taht section that is leaking. What type hose can I use?

fuel hose. find a tractor dealer, they normally have it.

just fyi once you touch one normally, the others start leaking. for the 25 dollars, it is better to replace them all. kit comes with everything from lines to clamps to new orings and caps.

Your right
Thanks
Where can I get a kit so cheap? $49 + around here

DieselCrawler 10-13-2009 03:05 PM

ebay. also there are some dealers online. the ones on ebay, make sure they fit your style. there were 2 different style caps for the injecotrs.

It may be in your best bet to find one with viton o-rings. I have only put 3k miles on my truck since I installed a complete kit and I already have 2 injectors leaking. Some people get lucky, some dont. The viton rings resist hardening better than the rubber ones.

how would you know if a kit had viton rings?

Sycostang67 10-16-2009 02:35 AM

I would hope it had some kind of literature explaining the contents, otherwise I'm not entirely sure. I just paid $40 for a regular kit and ordered a bag of 50 viton 0-rings for $5 to replace the ones in the kit. At least I wont have to get new o-rings for quite some time. I can give you a link to where I got my o-rings from if you want.

Would appreciate the link

I used some windshield washer hose once in a pinch... fuel was pouring out on a trip so I hacked it up to get by until i could find the proper hose..
