For those that never knew this line on the return from the top of the injection pump had an olive hidden in it.. Now you know. Also note that if the same olives are hard in the line from the lift pump to the filter inlet is hard.. so is this one as is both ends of the filter to injection pump inlet. See where the brass fitting with the three hoses are on it. that long piece has an olive in the end of it. If your engine has this steel hard line running down the drivers side of the intake manifold then you have this problem waiting to leak. http://www.ebay.com/itm/182162591942?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

You could do away with that hard line to the rear if you have these. Just run a hose from IP into #2 return line cap. The tee is 1/4" x 1/4" x 5/16" to tank.

This is what I ended up using when I got rid of my smaller return line system. The system with the green clamps. The red clamps are the larger return line kits.. One more item not in Bill's pic is the filter air bleeder. I got that from Oregon Fuel Injection.

I'm sure this has been asked before...Can these olives be bought at a local parts house? If so does anyone have a part#? And GREATPICS!!!! that fuel return looks awesome and those IP numbers are impressive.
