1998 Suburban 5.7L Fuel Line Leak Issue
Hello from down under,
I have a K8 Suburban with the 5.7L that I bought at a damaged vehicle auction.
One of the fuel lines is leaking a lot when I went to start for the first time since owning it. I believe it’s the return hose. It is a black braided hose with metal connectors on each end.
I am trying to remove it so I can replace it and wondering if I can get pointed in the right direction.
Is it possible to remove the metal connectors off of the hard line without removing the entire line that goes from the engine bay to the fuel filter?
My apologies in advance for the video quality and the shakiness. It was late and I had to get back to my place that is a few hours away from where the car is. (Car that can be heard running is not the one I am under with fuel leak haha)
I think I am posting this in the right place area of the forum but let me know if I need to delete and post in a different area.
