Martin, Thanks for the reply. If I am to cut off the fuel hose, where would you suggest I cut and then what do I do with the cut hose? Concerning your comment on removing the hose from hardline in the second paragraph. I am not familiar with crowsfoot and spanner wrench tools (Googled spanner wrench, and it looks like a giant cross at least 40 cm long). Could you elaborate on the tools and procedures? I believe you are talking about the oval shaped hole where one normally access the fuel accumulator.
