Leaking Fuel Feed Hose, discontinued part

[BassCliff]

Hi,

I hope I don't get in trouble for cross-posting this in the Parts Wanted section also. :-k

I found out that this is a discontinued part. Rather than pulling one out of a junkyard, I was really hoping to find NOS or aftermarket replacment. It is part number 15747600 (Fuel Feed Hose), #18 on the parts fiche page.



This is the actual part that has failed and started leaking gas from the fuel pump.



The fuel pump was replaced about 5 years ago. The #19 (return) hose in the fiche picture looks similar but it is a smaller diameter and may not supply enough fuel to the engine. Do you know of any repair kits? I was looking at the Dorman kits. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your indulgence,

Hi,

Just to close the thread, my mechanic found a couple of these hoses in a junk yard. He'll put the best one on and keep the other for a spare. Thanks for the suggestions! If this happens again I my have to experiment with one of the repair kits.


Thank you for your indulgence,
