So I had a buddy with a hoist the the car in the air I thought I noticed the gas line right after the fuel filter crimped where it is supposed to bend at the firewall when I did the filter .
We got on hoist and someone over the course of a repair attempted to lift the car with a floor jack right by the fuel line after the filter and crimped the line pretty damn good I'd say 3/4 crimped. My buddy said this is a sure good cause as to why you would be having minimal power and likely the reason why the car can't break loose .
I'll post some photos for opinion .
Does anyone know where I can get that whole line assembly from after fuel filter to the fuel rail .
Secondly I need a fuel filter OEM bracket they sorta just ran a plastic clip to hold the line up before and after the filter I want to make that right also
I looked on rock auto Is it a dorman 800055 800056 or 800051 for the whole line assembly . If someone can post what I need I have no idea what I'm looking for and don't want to order the wrong line or end up with just fittings .
And can the line be purchased locally at a Napa or O'Reilly?
After looking calling Napa all these places are of course saying fuel lines these days aren't really sold as a OEM whole assembly they have repair kits but I don't know what to do where it's crimped because that's steel line at that point of the assembly. Or do I have to eliminate the steel line and run plastic line and quick connect right after the fuel filter all the way to the fuel rail
Would this type of crimp be enough to pose a issue obviously no crimp is good and should be fixed for performance but is there enough pressure still to get past that crimp or would you say this is definitely a good indication why I may have hesitation on starting and no good power and wot from a stand still
