Default Re: Fuel Line Sprung a Leak - Gas Everywhere

Let me know if I missed this along the way but has this fuel line failure only happened to cars that have had their fuel filters replaced & someone CLAMPED these fuel lines off to prevent gas from spewing everywhere in the process. I haven't changed my fuel filter yet only at 13M miles but on my past cars that I did I found that the clamping of rubber lines created a weak spot in that line from that day on. Has anyone had this problem who has never had a fuel filter or pump replaced. Especially those who have the car from new & know it's history for sure. Just wondering. I haven't had a chance to remove the plate & check my lines yet since the weather is so cold here.
