160 diesel return lines

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Been trying to button this project up and keep getting stuck on parts..
Ok, so the return hoses right off the injectors are leaking and making a mess of the manifold so I called agco (that was silly) and they can only get the long one to the T fitting with a pocket blower price. They are a flexible hose currently but some other brands uses steel lines (Massy Ferguson 135 has the same model engine), has any one else had this problem? Seen All Stats Ag Parts has a new steel line for the MF 135 and it appears to me that it might work.

Just about afraid to go used with line due to the possibility of the same problem..

Thanks and God bless!!

	We use 2 cycle fuel line with the small clamps. Use the old OEM fittings and carefully grind off the brass crimps, what is left when you pull off the hose is simply a barb fitting that will acutally accept the plastic fuel w/o clamps as they push on hard and will take a set. Just don't grind into the barbs. You can ALSO do this on all the other flexible fuel line fitting on about all tractors with the banjo fittings. Grind off the crimps and pull off the hose and use good ole fuel line hose with a hose clamp. We have done this on Deutz and other engines for decades.
