hey Guys.i was putting a fuel pump in my 99 sport today and i messed up the little locking retainer that clips the fuel line to the pump.how can i fix this?Is that little metal clip with the locking ears sold by itself at a Ford dealer?Thanks for your help.Can i purchase that portion of the hose that runs to the fuel filter?

You can buy just the retaining clip. O'Reilly's used to carry them, I think AutoZone did to, so I'm sure most any auto parts store would have them. If not - Ford.

Thanks!I ran over to the Ford dealer and got 2 just in case I broke 1.At first they said I had to buy the entire fuel line from the fuel pump down to the filter that has the keeper made into it,but luckily an older parts guy that knew his stuff was coming back from lunch and set things straight.

It sucked that i broke the thing in the first place.neither of my 3/8 removal tools would let it release so i had to dig it out with a set of picks.
