You're on the right track...I love the description "ferulles of death"!

OK, Let me tell you what I have on my EV (from books & eyes) and you
tell me if you agree:
There are two lines that go from the fuel pump area under the van up
to
near the fire starter (distributor).
There is a blue plastic tube and a black plastic tube. At the upper
end
of both plastic tubes there is a transition to a short section of
rubber hose. At this transition are the dreaded ferulles of death.
These ferrules are crimped at the factory.
At the other end of the rubber hose, where they connect to fuel
injection components, are eith spring type clamps or otteger (CV boot
type) clamps.
Down below there appears to be the same arraingment.
There is a protective black plastic maybe sprial cover around these
lines but the plastic tubes appear to run continiously from the engine
area to the fuel pump/tank area.
Are we on the same track?
