fuel lines...

Well, installed the fuel rail and just realized after installing the solenoid rack that I used 3/8 fuel line instead of the more desired 5/16. All of the lines have constant torque clamps but do I need to go back in and replace to 5/16? Even if they are clamped correctly? Damn, I know I asked the pep boys flunkie for 5/16--guess that makes me a flunkie for not checking. Never bothered to check myself when the hoses were slipping on the nipples with ease....


FOCK!!! (again)

I would replace but it is up to you. If they don't leak then I don't see a problem with them but I would personally change them out.

It looks like 5/16'' is the proper ID diameter for fuel hoses. There is only 1 fuel hose I need, and thats the 10'' return hose that goes from the solenoid rack to the fuel tank. I'm wondering what kind of aftermarket hose I can use here, would a 50 psi fuel hose be adequate?
