Hi looking for help on this replacing fuel filter on 2.6 v6 it was that solid that the elbow pipe that fits to filter has broke any ideas?

Is it the pipe, or the fitting that attaches to the filter that has broken?


You can join broken pipe with a length of high pressure fuel hose and some clips.


You can replace a broken fitting in a similar way.


It is possible to add new fittings to the plastic pipe by heating the pipe and forcing the fitting in, but it isn't easy and you're really unlikely to manage it on the car.


For some specific advice post a picture of the damaged parts.

It is the connector to fuel filter which is an elbow that attaches to nylon fuel pipe if that helps
unfortunately cannot attach photos to forum
