injector return line placement

In my infinite wisdom I yanked all the cloth/rubber injector lines off the car. W/ new lines in hand I realized the placement of the nipples are not all the same. I placed the new lines from drivers side to passenger side nipple on next injector starting from the firewall side. The car runs well but I am not sure I put the lines in as they were.

The last injector has a plugged hose...where do I get one?

The plugged hose is the one closest to the firewall. Farthest from the front of the car.

And it doesnt matter which nipple feeds the next injector or receives the hose from the previous injector. When you pulled the short hose at the end for replacement, you discarded the reusable metal plug.

I have just completed my dumpster dive to retrieve the plug.

andmoon,

You can use a sheetmetal screw for the plug in the last injector. Just find one that screws into the return fuel line easily.
