buy a double-ended hose connector with barbed ends at home depot/lowes/hardware store. The connector should be pushed into the rubber hoses & held in place with good quality scew-type small hose clamps where each rubber hose slides onto the connector.



rough drawing.....LOL





temporary fix.......get a good fire extinguisher to keep in your vehicle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you could cut metal lines with small pipe cutter and buy some rubber fuel injection line and the scew type clamps and be rid of the rotted ruber line.around here the fuel injection line is $5.00 a foot

well for now i slid a rubber line over the "nipple" on the steel line and used a hose clamp and there is no leak as of now.. we'll see how it holds up and ill probably just end up replacing the whole line
