    fuel hoses

    when you go to reconnect the fuel lines under your car, is there any way you can tell which way they go round??

    also if you got them the wrong way round would it damage anything?

    cheers in advance

    trace them back, the feed going to the o/s of the fuel rail will be the one with the fuel filter connected to it, red connector i THINK, as for breather and return, good luck lol

    Can't remember how i worked mine out, THINK breather is white connector, but can't be sure
