Subject:Help with fuel lines!
From:Jess Lopatynski

Volks,
After reading many posts about replacing fuel lines on our aging Vanagons,
my father-in-law's '85 started to leak this morning, Saturday. We had been
discussing  a few days ago replacing all the fuel lines on his 85 and my
'87. As we drove up to his house this morning he was pulling out of his
drive with a steady stream of gas hitting the ground. 
We pulled it apart and the gas spray was coming from the short piece of
hose between the injector itself and the fuel rail. 
We have no clue as to how to remove the hose from the injector as it has a
rolled collar holding it on. No clamp. Are we looking at complete new
injector units??
I just spent quite some time searching the archives but came up empty on
this particular. 
Also, are the standard neoprene lines from FLAPS  ok to use?
TIA
