6.0 EGR delete install issue

[NLwestcoaster]

Hey guys...I'm doing the teardown for the EGR delete and I've run into an issue. I tried to get the driver's side fuel supply line off the front of the fuel unit and I accidentally twisted the line along with the nut. Now there is a slight kink at the bend in the line.

I thought I would just replace the line, but I can't see the banjo fitting on the driver's side. Is this easy to access? If not, can the line be repaired or will it work alright as it is?



Thanks

Robbie

I cant even see the kink

These might help. Should I worry about it??

The fitting wouldn't release so Eventually I put a hole in the line at the bend and ended up cutting it off. There doesn't seem to be much info out there on how to replace. I can't even find it in the workshop manual. Does anyone have any info on how to replace or repair? Any help would be appreciated.

I did the same thing on my 1st delete. Had to replace the line, no fun!

They are not that bad to do are you doing the proper egr delete and removing the cooler if so just take the upper rad hose off and coolant line from degas bottle and you got all the room you need make sure when you put the new one in you use a little vaseline on the copper washers to hold them in place done a bunch of them now would be a good time to replace the oil cooler to

Thanks for the help. I figured out how to replace it so it's all good now.
