Subject:      Re: Hose on Fuel Injectors - replaceable?
Comments: To: Taber Johnson <xtabe@YAHOO.COM>

I just replaced my fuel hoses in June and those short ones on the injectors
were the ones in the worst condition.  I used an exacto knife to slit the
old hose as much as I could, then got a third hand (my spouce) and pliers
to pull on the hose while slitting some more until it came off.  I re-used
the original bands.  So fare so good.  FYI I used the fuel line kit from
Van-again which worked out great.  Also consider changing the injector
seals while your at it, they are very cheap, my old ones were hard.
