Default Would this be okay or is it a big no no.....

Can't get the quick connect off of my rails. I have tried everything, it just won't come off. I'm gonna hulk that fkr today and will most likely destroy it. I'm just wondering if it would be okay to just run a section of hose to the rails and hose clamp it. Will that hold the pressure?

It wont come off? did you try a smaller or bigger rail clip tool? if you press it all the way in with the bigger one it should come right off, but you need to push the hose all the way in first so no internal clips are stuck.

you need to get a fuel line if you are gonna replace it not just a rubber hose. Rubber fuel line is reinforced
