Has anyone had to replace a leaking generator fuel line? Any suggestions.
If it is long enough cut it back and re-clamp until you have the time to change the hose. Also you can splice with a union if needed.
Simple fix, just cut that end off and make sure the fitting does not have any scratches on the barbs. Use the correct size clamp too.

Here is my post from a year ago. I had another from the time I did it but too late tonight and I can't find it.

That has already been repaired. Those don't come with hose clamps. I say it's time to pull a new hose.
Our generator fuel line had different sized fittings at each end for different size hose. I used full wrap F.I. style clamps on all ends. The clamps in the photo are poor as they damage the hose and may introduce air into the system.

Why not just cut off that crappy looking end and push fitting back in. I do agree that this particular style does not need a clamp but putting the style clamp on and just tensioning it so it does not rotate will not harm the hose. Why change line if it can be fixed by doing above. Seems to me to be a no brainer actually but,,, ,

Is this a 2000 (based on one of your previous posts)?
Are the fuel lines original? If they are, you're on borrowed time with all of them and it would be well worth doing them all at once (not just genset but main engine and possibly AquaHot (if so equipped) as well.
There are a fair number of posts about what fuel line to use, etc.
You might want to put your coach in your signature - makes it easier to get help that pertains to that specific year/model
the fitting is not leaking. There is a small pinhole leak that is occurring about 6 inches back from the bras fitting. I wanted to know if anyone had to replace it and how do you gain access to where the fuel line connects to the fuel tank.

According to Parker using an exterior clamp on a Push Lok fitting can damage its sealing integrity.

If you were to specify your particular coach in your profile, you could probably get more specific help from someone who owns the same model. Not all Foretravels are the same.
