Are we talking about the fuel injection line "ferrules"? Can't say as I've heard them referred to as "plug seals". Do you have a part number? I have never had any success in locating just the ferrules.
My parts books calls them "plugs" but my Cat dealer's parts description is "plug seal". I would call them ferrules... the part number is 2F2990.

As stated at the bottom of the parts page (with the triangle) plug seals are just used for shipping and storage. Meant to keep crud out of the fittings and lines.
No wonder why they were so cheap! My Cat dealer said I can pick them up today... Won't I be surprised!
To echo what Old Magnet has already said; Can't find the fuel injector line ferrules for the D318.
Are the ferrules silver soldered to the injector lines? If so, couldn't a ferrule be "sweat" off of another line and silver soldered it to another line?
Have to buy the complete line or have the line made.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
