Those right angle ones are the same as fitted to the GS balance fuel line - not in metal though of course.

BTW - I had the identical problem to you the other day. My GS was running like a PIG and so when I got to work I whipped the side panel off to see if one of the fuel lines was snagged (I just changed the flippin gearbox that went at less than 30k :shock: ).

I gently pulled the fuel line and WHOOSH - the quick release connector snapped clean off and started pouring petrol all over the hot engine and exhaust. I was stuck in the car park with my finger over the pipe in a cloud of atomised fuel. I one handidly took off the baglux and released the other quick release lines then got some snot rag out mu pocket. I Rolled it into a tight swirl then wedged it into the fuel line (after a load of fuel pouring down the inside of my sleve) then ran inside to get some bluetak and bunged the line up before taking off the tank and leaving it upside down in the car park. Got someone to run me to Bahnstormer at lunchtime then fixed it to ride home.

So... metal is DEFINATELY the way to go :wink:
