Doing a FAST 90 swap and couldn't disconnect the feed line to the rail system. Took the manifold off and twisted the feed line. It appears to be a hard plastic line covered by a rubber line. Can twisting break or kink the line?
Do I need to replace?
Appreciate any input.

any auto store should have fuel line disconnect kits. There cheap. Don't know if that helps, if you already got it off and are worried about using it, I would think that unless you can see some physical damage it should be ok.

Yes, twisting CAN break/damage the fuel line.
