My 07 Classic started leaking fuel near the cooler. Pretty sure it's a metal line leaking. Could I temporarily replace these with a fuel resistant rubber line until I can do a more permanent fix? Thanks for any input

depending on where its crack at you can. If is one of the metal/ rubber lines its prolly leaking where the metal line is crimped to the rubber. Just cut the fitting off the rubber line and replace with a new hose. Same goes for if its the metal line just cut the bad spot out and replace with a rubber hose and clamps

Thanks for the reply. I have to crawl under it today after work and see. Looks like it's up near cooler so I'm figuring a steel line rotted seeing how we use a ton of road salt around here

Thanks guys. Turns out it was the return line from cooler back to tank. I temporarily spliced a piece of rubber line in. Will be ordering the correct line on Monday
