Fuel Injector



Wear and aging of fuel lines

Lines bulge or restrict

Lines decay

Carbon buildup

Fuel leakage

Old rubber hoses become hard or soft,may even bulge, resulting in a leak

Old rubber hoses may dry, rot or collapse

Inspection interval:Fuel Lines, Hoses & Connections should be inspected at every regular scheduled maintenance interval.


• Improved fuel economy

• Enhanced Fuel System performance

• Increased driver safety


Technology Fact:With newer models that have Fuel Injector Systemsmost of these hoses are lifetime parts.
