So, the wagon has been running a bit meh lately, I have to take her to CT again on Monday, and it was due for an oil change anyway, so I figured I'd do some other work (PCV, clean the K&N, etc...). So, I decided to do the fuel filter too. Well, in the process of removing the hoses, I may have put a knick (or 2

404: Leak not found. Yay!
Yeah, I'm not going to deny that's possible. As runnah or inski or anyone else that's work on a car with me with me, I'm mechanically dumb. I tried loosening up the hose with a set of pliers, and I'd say I was a bit too rough on the old girl. HOWEVER, in my defense, on closer inspection I found the exact same knick on the out line, and I didn't touch it with the pliers, did that one by hand.

If its not leaking then run it. Check it once in awhile. Keep an eye on it. It will probably never leak.
If it does leak go to Napa and get some fuel hose and replace it. It unclamps further down the line. Napa has spools of fuel line and you can get a foot of it for cheap $.
I used to do 3-12 filters a week, I've destroyed a few hoses.
