Details

What's wrong: Fuel return hoses may break at either crimped coupling, causing a leakage of fuel.

Why it matters: In the event of a fuel return line separation, a fuelleak occurring in the presence of an ignition source could cause a fire.

The fix: Install a properly crimped fuel return hose.
