NM, I am talking about the metal pipes with banjo fittings going to and from the secondary
fuel filter. It is my personal conclusion that they become loose as a result of not being able to absorb vibrations like a flex line would.
As far as the see thru filter bowl, I do have a
racor upstream but it is mounted low and behind the
motor so its very difficult to inspect quickly. I want the other one clear because its right on top and easy to view.
Back to the fuel lines. If direct replacement flex lines are unavailable, I'm considering cutting off the ends of the pipes 1" from the banjo fittings and then replacing the middle section with high quality reinforced fuel line and double hose clamps on each end.
So, if I'm getting ready to do something really stupid (like blowing myself up) someone please tell me.
