Fuel line broken

This might be a simple fix I don't know because it started raining but the metal line to the fuel filter from the gas tank pretty much snapped off. Easy fix? Will it unscrew from the tank and I can replace it? Thanks for any help.

Re: Fuel line broken

yeah you can buy a replacment line for it, or you can ghetto rig it up for now and just use a piece of rubber fuel line from your parts store and use 2 hose clamps on it for now, to get it off the tank youll have to drop your whole tank, along with your axle, and exhaust its definitely a fuuuuun time

Re: Fuel line broken

Make sure to get fuel injection hose, not standard fuel hose - standard fuel hose might not take the pressure of the fuel pump since it's for low psi carb applications. Fuel inj hose will say fuel injection on it.
