Air Line Repair
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Marauder, 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis, and 2004 Ford Crown Victoria. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
A soapy water solution can be applied to the air lines to verify the location of air leaks.
- If a leak is detected in an air line, it can be repaired by carefully making a good, clean, straight cut. Trim back the outer covering of the air line 16-20 mm (0.63-0.78 in) to reveal the white inner line. Install a repair fitting and wrap securely with electrical tape.
- If multiple leaks are detected, install an entire new air line.
