Default 91 Accord fuel line nut not available?

I'm having trouble finding a fuel line nut for a 91 Accord. This one is located on the drivers side rear of the car. This is where the fuel tank feed is connected to the feed line running toward the front.

The flare tube nut size is 14 mm x 1.5 thread. The over all length is 28 mm. It has an unthreaded top portion about 6 mm long that seats onto the fuel line.

Honda tells me this nut is available only as part of their fuel line assembly. This means the dealership doesn't have a part number to reference.

Visiting local parts suppliers has turned up nothing. This includes NAPA, Auto Zone etc.

Several hours of internet searching has revealed nothing so far.

Does anyone know who can supply this fuel line tube nut or does anyone have a Honda part number?

Thanks.

So is the one going into the top of the fuel filter or the one going to the fuel rail?

EDIT: Wait, driver side, see if this helps...#22 or #23.

Default Tube nut location clarification

Neither.

This tube nut is not located near the engine compartment but rather back by the gas tank near the drivers side rear wheel.

The gas tank output feeds a banjo on the gas tank. This short line runs to an interface near the rear wheel. This connection hooks up to the main gas line feed that goes to the engine compartment. This is where this tube nut is located.

Ok, back by the tank. See if this helps, looks like you are talking about 35 or 37.

Looks like 35 is right at the pump and 37 is at the other end......

Part # 37 is a clip not a tube nut.

Part # 35 is the banjo bolt.

The tube nut isn't shown in this drawing at all. Reference the drawing for the fuel line and it is shown, but only as a part of the complete #10 part which is the main feed fuel line complete with connectors.

So, you stripped the fuel line.....If you find it, how are you going to get it on the fuel line, cut it and then splice.....if so, visit the local bone yard and have fun.

The intention is to run new fuel line and use new nuts on both ends.

The junkyard route will give me an old rusty nut like the one I have now!

The rust crumble after 20-years has made the 14 mm hex heads closer to only 13 mm.

A new nut is my preferred way.

I still need a source or part number for this tube nut.
