It's the actual hose? Probably just have to buy a new one; don't lose the o-rings on the end of the hard lines. There'll be little o-rings on the end of the flares, right between the tube nut and where the hose will go. In fact, you might want to replace them anyway; they're special o-rings, made out of (i believe) Buna-N, it's supposed to resist gasoline. Might be able to find them at Pep Boys, they'd be an orange-brown color instead of black. And if not, I'm sure the dealer won't charge more than $5/each But hey, better safe then sorry! Is it the feed line or the return line?
