Found a perforated banjo fitting on the output end of the fuel filter. I have some good used ones. I read threads here about replacing. Didn't find any that discussed inserting the replacement fitting into the old line.

This is a heat-shrink fit into a nylon hose. As the hose will have gas liquid, vapors, and varnish, heating the line to soften it is infeasible.

I called a friend who makes hose fr a living. She said that the line would be brittle after 20+ years so heating it probably wouldn't work anyway.

Has anyone put a new/used fitting into an old line - if so, how?

(I took a banjo fitting with a 6" piece and attached it to the existing like using a short piece of fuel line and clamps.)
