I'm brainstorming a few top-secret ideas right now, and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how the fuel line enters the IP. Is it a barbed fitting? Threaded? An inquiring mind wants to know!

In any of my posts, it is safe to assume
that I'm talking about this car.

Assuming that the model in question is the one pictured, the fuel line attaches to a barbed banjo fitting. The fitting attaches to the IP via a hollow bolt, sealed with two metal seal washers.

It uses a banjo fitting like the ALDA boost line on the intake. The line is hard plastic, but peel it off and it's a barb fitting underneath.

Humm, what could it be? Fuel heater? Fuel cooler? Electric pump to take place of the lift pump? Fuel pressure gauge?

Took it apart and can't remember how it goes back together
