So I replace my fuel line from the Stock Filter to the Stock fuel rail with a B&R replacement kit.
In the picture below I circled the location of the leak, item #3. I used all new OEM washers. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

I use teflon tape for both sides and torqued them down to factory specs. never leaked for me.

 

Where did you apply the tape exactly? The fuel rail is threaded.

 

WOW!! first are all the washers the same thickness? if so then you should be able to move on to the next step. did you notice the hole in the side of the threads? i mark its location on the bolt head and i line it up with the hose opening as i tighten it. dry that

 

I replaced the stock fuel line with an aftermarket one. The fitting is nearly the same as stock. I will double check the alignment of the hose fitting hole to the fuel rail hole.

 

i just have a habit of marking them like i do, but it works since i have never had a leak. i mean, there are times when i think its leaking and i watch it like a hawk while its running and i already sprayed it with windex and wiped it away. then i watch and check it with a q-tip so i can wipe it and smell the q-tip for gas. if i use parts wash i cant smell the gas too well. but even after i watch it like that for 20 minutes it still dont leak. but thats my strategy. i dont want no leaks. especially gas

 

Q-tip, good idea. I have shop towels that do a good job showing the leak so far.

 

thats good. you wanna know its there so you can see when its fixed. but are the towels slowing the leak? or showing the leak? LOL not sure if thats a typo LOL

 

make sure you dont have two crush washers on the same side

 

good point i missed this possibility

 

No double washer issue. Had an experience years ago with an oil filter. I double and triple check washers and o-rings now.
The towels just showing the leak. I have a plan for tonight when I get home from work. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone.

 

No luck so far. It appears to be the incorrect banjo fitting. New one on order from Jegs and I will pick it up today.

 

Fixed. No leaks. It's great I live 15 minutes from the Jegs warehouse. All I had to do was change out the bango that came with the hose kit and replace with the one shown below.

 

Here is the before image.


The after.


I didn't like the fuel line running over the intake pipe and it was a bit to tight for my taste.

 

And now I have a new problem. Car starting poorly. Started a new post.
