Leak ,I think, in the return fuel line 200 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be bearnoel on  Sun Apr 6 08:10 CST 2003 [RELATED]

There is a leak in my 240 fuel circuit. I think it is at the metal duct approximately halfway between the main pump and the engine compartment.

I presume that it is the line that brings back the fuel to the tank.
There are five lines running parallel to the drive shaft on the driver side and the leaky one is in the middle.

I presume that the high pressure line feeding the injectors is the black nylon one since the metal line does not seem to be very pressurized. If it is, it is not any more because of the leak.

Is it possible to repair the leak for now with the epoxy patching material that are sold to repair gas tanks. How complicated is it to replace that line and how should I proceed to do so .

Thanks in advance
