- 1991 XLT 4x4
Ok i've got a 1991 Ford Explorer 4x4 XLT and in the engine bay is a flexible steel braided line that has rubbed against a steel hard line and is now leaking. It's not a pressure spray .. more of a dripping when in park. It's enough to lose MPG. Has anyone with this year/make had this problem before?
I called the ford dealership and they want 250 to 300 freaking dollars for brand new lines.. thats not going to happen. So i'm wondering now if there is an easy fix without replacing the entire set of lines? It's the fuel line that connects to the engine and has what looks like a removable connector.. the line that is leaking is about 3 feet long. Below is a picture of the line. On the first picture, where the hard line is.. right under that is the leak..
