    Default Replacing Fuel Hose

    Hi ive got a cracked fuel hose that needs replacing, its on the drivers side and kind of curls over the distributor straight into the back of the chamber on the top there, and i cant see where it goes? I can match the hose up but i need to find out where it goes or what its called...

    that looks like the manifold vacuum hose to the fuel regulator.

    Get hold of a small mirror and a torch.

    So its to the Fuel Pressure Regulator Connector? And is that straight down behind the distributor or at the front near the radiator?
    Thanks for the help

    the hose is travels down the middle of the manifold to the connection behind the throttle body.
    Look at the .pdf I supplied in the above post.

    yeah i did, still a bit confused, so it goes in and under the back of the manifold (dustributor side) and goes all the way to the front of the manifold through it somehow? To the connector on the radiator side?

    As in the rear of the manifold is closest to the cabin and the front of the manifold closest to the nose of the car?
