ok went to install the walbro pump that i have and i broke the fuel line right before it makes the 90 bend out of the pump cap.
i have been looking at earls fittings and fuel lines and was wondering what you guys have used to replace the line?

Re: 1gen fuel pump..broke the fuel line! what should i replace it with?
you need to take a picture cause it sounds to me like your pump cap is fucked... did you break it right at the cap or the line comes off the cap, makes the 90 degree bend then you broke it? so more or less is the 90 degree bend still attached to the pump line?

ya it broke just a little above the cap. it is actually just a pin home leak. is it still screwed up? could i use fuel hose and a clamp to keep it from leaking?

did you bend it? i wouldnt just "clamp it" that seems like a half ass way of doin it!

bend it? if i bent it it was just a little. i was trying to be as careful as possible but tuged a little on it and it sprang a leak. but just a pin hole size. i was thinking that if i could get the whole thing out i could slip some hose over the pin hole and clamp it down...what about jb weld? does it hold up to gas and the pressure that the pump will make? keep in mind it is just a pin hole.
