fuel line leaking

accidentally posted this in the 1999-2003 section, so im posting it in the right forum.

i have a fuel line thats leaking right under the turbo. the fuel line bolts into the motor and then i beleive connects to a rubber hose. i will definately have to take the turbo off to get to it. i dont have any experience with turbos, and was wondering if theres anything that I need to know when removing it? anything special I need to know about replacing that fuel line? and to prime it, from what i under stand, i just need to turn the key multiple times and then when it does start drive it for a while, is that correct or am i missing something?

I believe thats the return line. If it is you shouldn't have to worry about any "priming" the fuel system. The turbo is not to difficult to remove. The back bolt can be a pita to remove.

Do a search on turbo removal. There are a ton of threads on it.
