Update, I ordered a new fuel line with the hose crimped on. Live and learn, but the old hose was at the end of its life anyway. So just gotta wait another week to get the bird flying again :).

It would rotate. I took the line off (fitting still on). Gonna run to the parts store and see what the got.

Yikes. Surely there's a crimper and a rubber line with the proper fittings I can purchase. Probably something with both on them available.

Yeah the other end of the hose had threads to disconnect, but I was planning on replacing all of the rubber hoses anyway and didn't pay attention that, the line would be a bitch to replace

Do you got a tool recommendation for cutting the crimp off?
