How do I change the fuel line from the fuel filter.
The fuel line that comes from the fuel filter then goes up to my engine how to I replace this?
Do I pretty much just follow it up to my engine disconnect it there and pull it out?
Any help would be great thanks.
As soon as possible too it would be awesome.

Re: How do I change the fuel line from the fuel filter.
Interesting question. I don't understand exactly what you're asking. The steel line is threaded into the rear of the TB. It runs down the top of the trans along with the return line and there is a rubber section in both lines running to the frame rail. From there they run back to where the steel supply line threads into the filter. To replace the line(s) you simply disconnect them and replace them. There are a few brackets, one that attaches to a transmission bellhousing bolt, that hold the lines in place. You have to detach and loosen these brackets to get the lines out. You you may be able to purchase replacement lines from someone like Dorman.

Be sure to always hold the hex on the filter, or on the throttle body with a wrench while breaking the line loose and while tightening it. Be aware of the o-ring on the end of the line at each fitting. If this o-ring is damaged the fitting will leak.
