Default Fuel line replacement

Anyone offer advice on replacing the rigid fuel line between the fuel pump and fuel filter on a 1988 240 DL wagon. I have a leak at the brass connection from the pump after replacing the fuel filter.

Thanks!!

uhmm High pressure fuel line from an auto parts store would probably do the trick.

It's just nylon/teflon fuel line. Get a new piece, cut old line off with razor blade, put on new line, heat ends with heat gun. Done!
Or teh high pessure fuel injection hose and a couple of clamps will work well too, slice old hose off and you have two nice hose barbs to slide teh line on to.

Regards, Andrew.
