Fix for fuel line quick disconnect fitting?

[CoastyAV8R]

I had my taken my quick disconnect line off at the fuel tank and lost the little blue plastic piece that serves as the quick disconnect lock (it slides out when you want to remove the line then slides back in when you lock the line back on to the fitting on the fuel tank). The Dodge dealer won't sell just the little piece only the complete line. Any ideas short of rummaging around the junkyard?



Thanks,

Patrick

Try and see if anyone that installed a fass or Air Dog!!! Let me go check mine, since I installed my AD... Be right back



Sorry, I went and looked at my stock fuel line (it's really cold out) and did not see it at the end. I realized that I beat it up pretty bad getting it off and must have thrown it out after the install of the AD. I even checked the AD box for my "extra" parts and did not fined it. Sorry. Again look for those that installed an aftermarket fuel pump, they may have it just lying around!!!

Maybe you could use the clip form this Glacier Diesel Power - Product Detail

I don't have the part # handy, but you can go to NAPA or other parts stores and buy just the plastic inner clip. As I recall they came in a 5 pack.

Thanks guys. Knowing how cold it is makes the fact that HOBrian actually went out and looked at his fuel line is above and beyond and it's nice to see a fellow Coasty (Black Pearl) on the forum. I wound up going to Napa as GReed suggested and found the packs of fuel line clips. I didn't know if the line was a 5/16 or 3/8 so I bought each and then the part I remember seeing was what Napa said was for a Ford so I bought those clips as well as the ones for the Dodge so I wound up walking out of there with 4 packs of clips so I should have it covered. Thanks...

Twest, I drove the truck around yesterday and it became hard to start again even with your rail pressure sensor installed so I guess the chase goes on. Tomorrow I'm reconfiguring the truck to the OEM pump and see what effect that has and then we'll talk again. Thanks for all of your help...
