    when you said nylon barb, you mean the fuel line? I just repaired a cracked nylon fuel line in my '92 regal, it was spraying out gas for days before I repaired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have a friend with a Cadillac Catera. 3.6l. the valve covers are directly over the exhaust manifolds on both sides. The driver side started to leak and poof fire. burned up alot on the driver side. I had to repair the whole harness, and lots of other stuff. runs good again but scary thought. Hopefully someone covers yours. also curious as to what nylon barb you are referring to?

    sorry to hear about your car, this is some thing that has crossed my mind before, is that some thing insurance covers or does it all come out of pocket to repair.

    Yes I have full coverage on my car and im getting an estimate done on it right now. the nylon hose bard was on the transmission line, and the weird thing is that it wasnt melted or anything it just ruptured, and i made sure it was replaced with a steel hose barb like the other line.

    Well it's going to get fixed. 4700 worth in damages I pay 500, which works for me.
