Banjo Bolt Repair?

[JHZR2]

I tried to remove the return line to do a flow test on my car. I’m trying to properly size an additional fuel filter because there is rust in the tank and I don’t have the time to fix it now. Plus the car runs great.

The return rubber hose on my 93 300SD would not come off. At all. I pulled hard and obviously it was a little too hard.

I really need to drive the car for about 300 miles on Tuesday.

Any suggestions??

Thanks!
