If you have not already done this, I suggest you get maybe 6 or more feet
of hose, a bunch of clamps, a Dremel moto-tool and a bunch of #409 cutoff
disks. Replace every hose that looks even slightly cracked including those
to the injectors. The ferrule can be cut off with the #409 cutoff disks and
you can replace the hose pretty easy. Length is fairly critical on those.
Also check the hoses around your fuel pump.

It is nothing short of amazing how much gasoline you can leak through a
small hole or crack at 28 psi. Susan sprung a leak on her 240 and I think
it is even higher pressure yet, maybe 45 psi.
