Default Iddy Biddy Clip/C4

Hey Y'all,

It's the little C-clip that holds the fuel return line in the fuel pressure regulator. Mine broke and I need a replacement.

I found a pipe kit that includes the part I need but it's fiddly bucks and I don't want to spend fiddly bucks for a little clip.

I went to the junkyard looking for one and was wading around the barn full of engines and there were frogs everywhere. And you know where there are frogs and rats there are you know whats...I just killed a 5 ft rattle snake the other day.....

Where can I get the iddy biddy clip?

Thanks,
Tom

Harbor freight sells a kit with c-clips of various sizes for $7.00 or so. Maybe one of those will work. Than you'll have 499 left over clips for other projects!

This would get you one for something less than "fiddly $$" OR you can do the walk looking for likely LT1 engines that are '94+ I think for that style fuel line retainer.

Don't have any idea where you're located but if there were some very old "taxi salvage" in the area I'd think all of the later would use the same components at the regulator. Old cop cars and Roadmasters also. I wouldn't think that difficult find.
