Thinking of relocating my adjustable fpr on my xe. Where I'd like to put it will require me to cut down the standard fuel return line (blue coated metal pipe) and somehow attach a rubber hose which will then go to my fpr.

So my question is can this be done (cut and join factory lines)? If so what do I use to attach the blue metal fuel line to a rubber fuel pipe as the factory ones are crimped?

Any links/advice greatly welcomed

i shortened mine at the first join under the body behind the engine bay... just cut it to length then heated it to soften it and pushed it back on the correct original fitting - works perfect!
