High pressure fuel hose. Where to buy?

[triangles]

My high pressure fuel hose from the body to the fuel rail on the engine has sprung a leak. Part# 16440-4S101 which looks like this:

It appears this hose is obsolete unobtanium. Any suggestions on how I can fabricate a replacement or where I might find a new replacement that my Google-fu has failed to help me find?

Update:
It appears that the fact that this hose is no longer obtainable is a non-issue. The rubber bits can be easily removed and replaced with a bit of hose and some hose clamps for less than $20.

My high pressure hose sprung a leak near the end that attaches to the fuel injection rail. You can see the rubber wet with gas.


The end near the fender requires a 14mm and 19mm wrench. I used flare wrenches and I couldn't get the nut to break loose so I ended up cutting the hose and using a deep well socket. I had to trim the metal of the crimp so I could get the deep well socket on far enough to reach the 19mm hex. Then with an impact wrench it came apart easily.


Then I simply used a Dremel to cut away and then pry off the metal crimp. The rubber had deteriorated such that it was difficult to clean up off of the tube.


Finally I scrubbed the tube with some green scotch bright pad to make sure things were clean. I didn't take a picture of the end with the 19mm hex but it looked practically the same.



I fixed things with less than $20 in parts from Autozone. I purchased 1 foot of 5/16" fuel injection hose and a 10 pack of 1/2 to 9/16" (13-15mm) stainless steel fuel injection hose clamps.

The original rubber hose was approximately 10.75" long. I cut my new hose to 11.75" long so I could use 2 hose clamps at each end. I'm pretty sure this was overkill but I had the extra hose and hose clamps so why not use them. I simply slid the hose on farther at both ends and added the second clamp. While the o-ring on the fuel rail end looked fine it was also 19 years old so I replaced it with a 7.8mm x1.9mm o-ring from my o-ring kit. I have no idea if this is the OEM size but it looked near identical to the one I pulled out. You can buy the OEM o-ring for a few bucks if you like. It is part 16618-10V10. That is my back up plan if my Harbor Freight o-ring fails. The final install, fixed for under $20 and a couple hours of searching for the right tools and then actually doing the work.


Admin, I hadn't intended this to be a How-To so if you think it's worthy please move this to the How-To section.
