Help any fix for this?

I purchased this tank from a forum member and need to fix the cut lines or is there any way to remove the blue T from the tank and replace with the one from my old tank???

The cut lines look like they are heat shrinked to the blue fitting can they be reheated and removed? Then replaced with mine?

Thanks for any info.

Mike

The blue piece is part of the fuel tank. The plastic lines can be removed with a heat gun then re installed with hose clamps, but be careful not to heat it too much or else the lines will break.

Thanks, I will give it a try. Worried about the heat and fuel fumes.

NAPA makes a fuel line repair kit that includes a barb and new hard plastic line

Or cut it off carefully and use a rubber hose designed for EFI
