Introduction to FMSI Fuel Lines

• Fuel lines on vehicles have always had rust and corrosion problems and eventually must be repaired or replaced. 

• With the advent of the fuel-injected vehicle, fuel line pressures increased to levels reaching sixty to seventy pounds, significantly increasing the problem of fuel line leaks. 

• Leaks under these pressures are not only costly because of fuel loss, but are dangerous as a potential for fire now exists.  

• Furthermore, certain vehicles will cease to operate when the pressure in the fuel system drops too low as the result of a fuel line leak. These problems have created a need for high quality, moderate cost solutions.

• FMSI steel replacement fuel lines are available in several lengths and styles, offer cost savings, and are easily installed repair alternatives. 
• The lengths available are easily attached to existing "on the car" fuel lines with little or no bending. 
• Permanent repairs to fuel lines can be achieved with this superior to original equipment part. 
• Current model technology for steel-fuel lines includes the use of galvcoat protection, which we incorporate in the FMSI program, to ensure top quality, permanent repairs.

• FMSI also offers a complete line of nylon fuel repair lines using original equipment connectors manufactured in North America for General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. 
• These nylon fuel repair lines are available with straight-line and 90-degree elbow connectors in 5/16, 3/8, 8 mm and 10mm diameters. 
• Fuel line splices are also available to repair vehicles using nylon fuel lines front to back.  
• These are available in 12", 24" and 36" lengths, in 5/16, 3/8, 8 mm and 10mm diameters and will repair original equipment fuel lines when leaks occur at locations other than the connection.

• FMSI's nylon fuel lines will easily bend without kinks or restrictions to accommodate all kinds of tight applications. 
• Although nylon fuel lines don't rust and corrode, they do have problems that are unique to them.
  • Nylon connectors are broken when retainer clips are removed (to access filter or sending unit).  This is very common once the vehicle has reached 3 years or older.
  • O-rings found inside the nylon connectors seize to the steel lines exiting the gas tank fuel sending unit and the interior of the connector is pulled apart when removing.
  • Damage from accidents is common and a direct hit on the line by ice/snow and road debris can  and does cause severe damage.

• Coated steel repair lines using the same galfan coating that is used on newer vehicles.
• Available in 9", 18" and 36" lengths.
• Part numbers 3060 through 3065.

• Allows mechanic, or do it yourselfer, to repair sections of rusted or broken fuel line instead of replacing complete fuel lines, front to back. 
• When replacing fuel lines front to back, it is easy to damage other rusted and corroded brake and transmission lines that run in the same bundle.

• Pre-bent and swaged (diameter reduction) sending unit repair lines.
• Part numbers 3072 - 3083.

• Eliminates the replacement of fuel (in tank) sending unit when rusted out pressure and return lines are the reason.
• Lines are bent at Original Equipment 90-degree angles are easily soldered into existing fuel lines that have been cut off level with the top plate of the gas tank sending unit.

• Repair of Nylon fuel repair lines without total replacement.

• The only real alternative to replacing fuel lines front to back, as General Motors, Ford and Chrysler offer only complete lines.
• Cost savings in labor and parts of $200.00 or more per repair.

• 90-degree elbow 3/8 - 5/16 - 8mm
• 10 mm connectors

• Original equipment connector is replaced by same, to insure complete leak-free repair.
• All diameters in straight and 90-degree elbow available to make repair lines very easy to install and a real time saver over complete line replacement.

• Flexible nylon fuel line tubing.

• Makes all nylon fuel line repairs possible with this easily installed tubing.
• The only after-market nylon fuel repair lines using this easy-to-install, labor saving tubing.
