I was performing a tune up (spark plugs, spark plug cables, injectors, etc) for my 1999 Dodge Durango 5.2L 4x4 through a local mechanic and the fuel rail connecting hose apparently broke when he was working on it.

He attempted to repair it temporarily with a high pressure hose and clamps but it's leaking.
Obviously, I haven't used the vehicle since. I've been trying to find information on possibly repairing the connecting hose or if I have to replace the entire fuel rail assembly. If it's the latter, what's the Mopar part number or correct model years which will fit my vehicle?

Any help will be greatly appreciated !!!

Thanks in advance!

Ask your local Napa Dealer to look for a repair kit in Dorman Solutions or Gates....
Is this the style part your looking to replace?????

I'll definitely look for the repair kit. At least I'll try to find one. Not sure if it's available.


The part that I'm looking for is: 1- fuel rail connecting hose

RacerHog

OK... I think if you find a kit you can repair it.... But if not you may need to get the whole thing if it is still available?
I see you posted it over on the Durango Site. Maybe someone has run into that issue and has a better fix?

Bareyto

Yes, I'm afraid I might need to get the entire fuel rail. Unfortunately, I don't think it's available anymore. Might need to go to a junkyard and try to find one, hence why I'm trying to repair it temporarily until I can find one.

If I need the entire fuel rail, I need to figure out which Durango model years will I need to find for a proper fit or other cars with the same engine and setup.

RacerHog

This is the part?

Bareyto

Yes, that is the entire fuel rail. The part that broke is the connecting hose to both sides.

Check with CARID and see if you can source one...
Problem your running into, is that hose is a swedge Srunk hose...
You can try some Fuel Injection hose and Full circle clamps and see if that works? But it has to be for Fuel injection....

Bareyto

That's what I'm attempting temporarily until I can figure out how to find an entire fuel rail.
I'm using 100psi fuel injection hose and some fuel injection high pressure clamps. Hopefully it stops the leaking for now until I can find a permanent solution.
