Exclamation Here we go..Help

Hello forum.. I just got my plenum gasket done after breaking three intake bolts and a pain of other problems. Now after I am all finished I find that the fuel line from the fuel rail that runs at the back side of the engine has a leak. I have been trying to find a part number or a line similar to the one I have. Any ideas would be awesome.. Thanks!

I did the same thing, went to a local Auto shop and told them what happen, and they just cut me some tubing, and it was only like 2$ take the tubing if you can to get the best size. Haven't had problems since.. ( 4 months ago )

not to thread jack, but how did you go about taking care of your broken bolts? i broke one, and it has about 1/4" sticking up past the head. any ideas on how to tackle it?

Lots and LOTS of Pb buster, some vice grips, and a ton of motivation.. I had two. Broken bolts in the front, and one towards the back. It took me an hour and a half to get out, and that's taking turns with my friend..

I broke one in back on the pass side and the two front ones. They came out with vice grips pb blaster and some vibration.. hammer lol.

What did you use for the quick connect on the fuel rail side? My connector does not wanna come off the fuel rail.

Are you talking the crossover hose between the two rails?

I need the hose that goes from under the truck.. or the back of the block..cannot see where it is connected.. to the fuel rail.. it doesnt look like there is a return line.
