    I'm not finding anything. In the picture before the removal of the 2nd failure there is nothing even nearby. The first failure looks like it split due to being bent and stressed, but I didnt see that. The second failure looks like the line was overpressured, but I concur with 100 psi being...

    3.0 MPI Failed Fuel Line

    Fuel line from pump to fuel rail failed and started dumping gas on the running engine (scary). Ordered new line and looking for torque spec at the fuel pump connection. Also, is this a common problem? I'm worried if it happens again what that could entail.
