Well when i did my nitrous install i kind of half-assed the fuel tap. Since ive done it i feel as though my fuel pressure dropped since my motor's response has slowed considerably. I've been putting off fixing it for a while but i'm ready to do it. But i have one question.



Does anyone know how the F to get this hose/connector off? The repair manual says to use a toyota tool but im sure theres a way without it. I'm thinking about just taking 2 paper clips and shoving the 4 ends behind it. I've seen people sell these lines used before so im sure someone knows how to get them off.

 

i believe that the toyota tool up there in the diagram wedges in between the coupler for the fuel line and pushes a circle retaining spring to open up. when the spring opens the tension is gone that is holding the lines together. u can use the similar tools from a a/c line kit. thats what i used when i changed my fuel filter in my ford ranger. it was the same deal as what your doing up there.

 

yea just press the clips down and pull out, its easy.

 

It's kinda of a pain in the a$$ to remove without the tool of course but if u have a small flat head screwdriver u can gently pry against the inner clips to release it

 

I thought the kit for changing the fuel filters at Sears was the same tool,check it out,it was under $25 for all the sizes,and it should work.

 

sweet. THANKS!
I wonder if harbor freight has it. lol.

You guys know if either one of these is it?

Most automotive parts stores have them. All you need is the a/c line removal tool and the right size one you will be good.

 

The tool doesn't work. There's 2 barbs in the hard line. One to hold the soft line on, and another to stop you from using that tool. Lol.

I just took off the fuel rail and used paper clips to pull the retainer out of the hose.

I figured out why my car was running so crappy. Take a look.



She runs 10x better now.

 

It worked for me when I had to remove mine.

 

did u not get the zex fuel line adapter? makes it SOOO much easier and u dont have to tap into anything

 

i did. but i didnt like how the stock fuel line fit so loosely on the adapter so i tried to figure something out. At least it's all good now.
