Smile Fuel Line Quick Connect Clips (needed)

NOTHING AVAILABLE IN SEARCH...I have a 1986 F250 Lariat XLT 4x4 with dual tanks. I replaced the Fuel selector valve 3 Port 2 wire TYPE. The fuel lines are the quick connect type with the hard plastic fuel lines. The connectors have plastic clips that fit over the nipples of the valve and keep the lines from coming off. anyway I broke 2 of the 3 clips. Does anyone have a part number and a Vendor that would stock these, I would hate to rig up a hose and worm gear clamp to correct this. Many thanks.

You might want to try autozone's site. I put in "fuel clip" in a search and several came up, some without pictures though.

If its what I think, you get 2 of them with a fuel filter. I remember there being 2 sizes, the black ones and white. White comes with the filter. The ford dealer should have them, at least thats were I got them 10 years ago or so. you can also use a zip tie, they are about as strong as the clips. Kinda hard to explain how I've done it but I could try if you dont understand what I mean

I had absolutely no problem installing rubber fuel line + hose clamps in place of the
molded lines (which utilize those quick-connect things) the factory had installed on my
daily driver when I had to replace the fuel pump last summer. I'm sure you can prolly find
'em in a Help catalog at an auto parts store. Or, go to a Ford dealer as someone already
suggested, they may have 'em in stock.

I like the wire tie idea myself. I am going to file that away and try it sometime.

Last time I needed replacements (two or three years ago), I got them from my Ford dealer.

This site is really great, I appreciate all the INPUT, I was able to locate them at NAPA.
I will try to monitor the threads more closely, as I can assist those in need as well.

Again thanks you A-LOT
