Went to look at a Punto GT today. Needs 1 new wing mirror,(easy to get). BUT it also has a fuel leak. The leak is where the fuel line joins the connector thing that bolts onto the fuel pump. Ive been round all the scrappies round here, and a couple of motor factors. Where can i get the fuel line from? Without going to fiat?

Cheers

Dont buy a punto GT if you cant afford a connector from FIat.

I just cant be arsed buying the whole fuel line, when i could just get the connector block with 6" of pipe and connect it to the origional pipe.

If anyone knows where theres a punto in a scrappy U2U me and ill pay for you to get the part for me!

buying the whole fuel line would be the better option, cutting and joining would leak after a while.

No reason for it to leak if done properly but a new line from fiat probably isnt that dear

Is it on the drivers side near the rear wheel behind the sill?

Bear in mind that GT tanks are metal and leak like fcuk. £500 part alone from Fiat.

Like Rob says, if you can't afford a small part from Fiat, don't buy a GT. GT's aint the cheapest to run and maintain.
