I guess I just wondered what was the problem, and why isn't it a common problem anymore. To clear things up (or not) I'm talking about the short, squiggly steel lines under the plastic logo cover. | ||

One of them was a recall that called for low pressure fuel line replacement and grinding down some plasitc in the rear cover so it would not rub against the line. The most recent one was a change in the fuel line vibration dampner location and torque turn methond for fuel line cap nuts rather than a set torque value. http://www.ddcsn.com/cps/rde/xbcr/ddcsn/18SP653Rev.pdf www.TruckMechanicTips.com ASE Master Truck Mechanic L2 Advance Level | ||
