The problem

The fuel hose may rub against a bracket in the area where it attaches to the fuel pump. As the hose chafes against the bracket, a leak can develop.

The fix

Any damaged hoses will be replaced and all hoses will be repositioned as necessary to achieve enough clearance with the other components. A protective edging will be installed on a portion of the frame to prevent abrasion of the radiator hose and fuel lines.
