Fuel Leak on Return Line behind filter housing

[R-Carter]

I have a 2006 Dodge and was wondering if I need to replace the whole return line.

Fuel seems to be leaking where the line attaches to the Fuel filter and is running down the line to right behind the front drivers side wheel.



I am assuming I need to replace the complete line,



Does anyone have any advice to help me.



what size is line, can i just get something from NAPA, or do i have to have Dodge product.



Thanks very much.

Did the banjo bolt become loose? I would try to re-torque the bolt first. Might try putting new copper washers on the banjo connection and re-torquing before you go to the trouble of a new line.

Might check the quick-disconnect bleow the banjo fitting as well. If it is leaking at that connection maybe you can get away with replacing the o-ring in there. You can also buy replacement quick connect tubes at O'Reilley Auto Parts if it is the tube itself causing the leak from a Crack/split...
