Congratulations! It's always good to hear about a machine coming back to life.
no reason you cant use fuel hose as the return isnt under high pressure. you could also solder or braze over the split. if you use hose i would flair the end of the pipe slightly so the hose grips better and is less likely to pull off or leak.
Great info.. so obvious.. Thank you Trainz .. flaring sounds perfect.. sorry the video of actual running and showing fuel leak didn’t paste to this entry.
We're looking forward to the video!
Unable to post the video.. thinking it’s 94.5mb. Maybe too large? Only 80 some seconds .. it’s the 3T running after a 2 year nap.. plus showing a broken fuel injectors return line resulting in a drip.
yes most phones are that high a quality they make very big files. run it through a program called handbrake to compress it.
Put your video on youtube or something similar, make it public, and post the link here.
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."
