I have one leaky return line on #6 injector. Anybody know if I can get something cheap locally for this?

Disturb one and break another. Replace them all.
Best is the Bosch push and lock return hose. No clamps, no leaks, resists heat. See a diesel shop, possibly ebay.
In a pinch, napa has a cheap set of return lines and clamps. But they don't take heat well, but work in a pinch.

had really good luck with this line during my build. No clamps to fool with.
Thanks for info. Are you using his injectors too?
Do Not buy the Napa kit. It's a re-branded dorman, and the lines are not diesel rated. Why they aren't diesel rated i don't know, but i can't see any other reason they fell apart from the inside out. I bought them, and they rotted away in less than 3 months, and 5,000 miles. At first it started with dry cracks, then they went to pissing fuel everywhere shortly afterwards. Total waste and total junk!
Go with Tygon and make your own lines. I believe the lines are 5/32" diameter, but i don't remember. The Tygon lines were an idea i had in a pinch, well actually the small engine repair shop guy had(because it was all he stocked), and proved to work like a dream. If Tygon can take the heat of a 2 stroke chain saw and a solvent like gasoline it can take a lubricant like diesel just fine.

Where is best place to get the good return line material? Is the stuff Chief915 pointed to on Ebay the Bosch line? I think I will go ahead and get some since I am sure to need more before too long anyway. Either replacing injectors, or fixing leaks....
