One of my fuel recirculation lines broke off at the check valve just above the middle carb. It's just about impossible to get to. Do I really need to remove the air silencer, and carbs to replace this line? The motor is running fine but the broken line is squirting fuel .

I'd sure replace if it were mine. Gas flowing around your engine is an extreme fire hazard.

Has anyone ever tried putting the line on with long needle nose pliers? Just wondering if it is worth a shot, or is impossible.
