Re: Carb to Fuel Pump Hard Line [Leak at Fuel Pump]

Does this remain the problem? You have a hard line you would like to use and you attach the hard line and snug it up and it leaks? This is my solution, no more leaks. Copper flare gaskets. I'll never install another hard line at the pump, nor re-attach the hard line to the carburetor after changing the filter, without using one. Easy, cheap, pain free. https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=762179
