I installed a strut bar under the hood, and i had to unscrew some type on small small can connected to metal tubing. The other end led to the engine with rubber hose that was connected to some round plastic thing.

Its too dark to take a picture, but i wanted to know if anyone else had this issue when installing a strut bar.

this was the only way i could put in the bar, but i just need to make sure it is ok that the fuel line is like that

is there a way to move it without breaking the copper tubing?

Why do all of that use the strut bar to slightly pull it up to bend to give clearance but just be very care to not over do it thats what I did instead of removing it from the firewall.

if you are that lazy not to remove the strut bar, then just leave it as is.

you would rather mess with your fuel line and possible damage it rather than take off and reinstall your strut bar. jesus
