Found my gas leak! but got questions

[johnadams]

Ok.... in pic below... the blue arrow is pointing to the fuel filter(the silver canister), right?


Now the white arrow is pointing to the hose that is coming down from the fuel filter. At the bottom of the hose, there is a clamp that is holdin the hose to a metal pipe (dont know what to call it).
The gas is leaking from where the clamp is. My guess is that there is a crack in the hose or something else.

My question is, Anybody know the part number for that hose?
ANd second, When i go to replace the hose, is there a special way i should go about replaceing that hose so that i will minimize the amount of gas being spilled?

Thanks in advance.

part number? HAHA

do this:

go to pep boys or some auto store that sells hoses (you buy by the length)

pull fuel pump fuse
turn on engine until dies
crack it a few more times
now remove that little hose on the hardline and fuel filter
go into pep boys/autoshop
match the hose size with the ones they sell (various sizes)
cut to same length
pay
replace with the new hose
test

done

our friend, itsybitsy had the same hose repalced just a few months ago

in and out job. :) and very very inexpensive (under 5 bucks i think?)
