Front Fuel Leak 1993 Ranger 4.0 XLT Auto

I'm not sure if I need 5/16 or 3/8 I'm assuming 5/16 because it's a supply line.

You could assume. Or you could measure. The choice is yours. I normally opt for measuring.

I just spoke with a sales rep from Summit. Here's the part I need. This adapts to the original quick disconnect line. I'm not sure if I need 5/16 or 3/8 I'm assuming 5/16 because it's a supply line.

Fuel filter uses 5/16” on both sides and I think also the tank fitting of those. Return I believe uses the 3/8” flavor. I keep a few of both on hand just because.

I’m probably end up at my buddies place today or Friday, my AN stuff is currently there, I’ll try to get some information.

@Curious Hound @lil_Blue_Ford The reason why I'm posting this video is because I wanted to see how this part (photo below) will couple/interface to the original existing part of the fuel line in which I'm not replacing as of yet. Is this the correct fitting I'll need? I'm just double checking is all.

It says it does. I looked at those a couple weeks ago. I like that style because instead of the spring lock, it uses that slotted nut to tighten down on the lip of the connection. That seems a lot easier to deal with, in my opinion.

Yeah that style is really sweet. I was just wondering if thats the proper connection hookup, not sure if I needed male or female.

@Curious Hound Would I need both a 5/16 and 3/8 fitting for both lines, supply and return. It says I would, but both fuel lines look like the same thickness.
