Default h22 civics, EK mostly, fuel filter line hitting tps

just like it says..
a line off of my fuel filter is hitting my tps. actually i had to bend the fuel filter back with some large pliers to get my tps sensor plugged back in(then the filter bends back to its original place). and once it is plugged in, the line and the sensor plug are resting on each other and the top part of the plug has chipped off, although this has not made a problem yet. i think it may when i hit the track in the upcoming months. ( a broken tps may lay in my future )

sooo.. my question is...

-do any of u other h22 ek'ers have this issue? if so, what have u done?

-what would yall recommend on how to relocate the filter?

thanks.

a lil fyi:
99 ex to be exact.
place racing mounts (i know, )

You can always do that, but it's kind of to the extreme (we wanted to do it) and you have to reflare the lines (we have a reflaring tool specifically for this) and then get the appropriate AN fittings and and inline fuel filter and you're set.

DAMM that's nice

i just moved the fuel filterover as much as possible, and then slightly rebent the line with my hands.

the TPS came very close the the fuel flitter line (3/8") but never hit.
