While installing the new fuel pump in my 95SE, I accidentally broke the little plastic white and red clips/ferrules where the supply and return fuel lines go into the pump. None of the local parts houses have replacements for them. All the parts house Ford fuel line clips seem to be for the connectors but none for the pump fittings themselves! Local Ford "Stealership" will only sell the complete line assemblies at $250.00!! There is a local junk yard that has the right 'Tour in back, but won't let me grab the fittings myself (insurance regs!) I will have to wait several hours and they will only sell me the whole pump assembly with the clipped lines/fittings attached for $50.00! I know that puts me $200.00 ahead of Ford, but the clips themselves could only be worth 75 cents if that!! With all the fuel pumps CEG'ers have replaced, I'm sure someone else had the same problem! The nylon clips get brittle after a while and become easy to break.

Anyone have any suggestions! Normally I'd "MacGyver" something, but dealing with 40psi gasoline I'm understandably hesitant!
