All:

I figured out what broke from my last post. Its the fuel line that runs all the way from the tank to the front of the car. There is a small valve that connects the fuel filter in and its all one piece part number 9205160 on a 2000 S70 GLT SE turbo. I can easily get to the front fuel line and everything underneath is available. I can also open the access panel in the trunk to get to the piece that goes to the fuel tank. What I can't figure out is how to get the fuel line up and over the top of the fuel tank. The cooridor is very tight between the tank, the shock and the frame. Are there any tricks to get the fuel line and that clamp up between there. I see that there is a mount for the tank itself right there, but I am afraid to mess with that. I tried to shove a piece of plastic tubing through to see if I could get it underneath but I couldn't get it to go. Any thoughts? I am going to have to tow this thing to a shop?

Thanks,
John
