Check your fuel lines

Heart breaker RIP another Charger.

BTW... I carry a fire extinguisher in all my cars.

RIP ?
Not even close. That car is absolutely restorable.

It might eventually show up on one of the insurance auction websites.

EFI hose? 100 psi if I remember correctly. Reg hose? No clue, maybe 20?

I have some 5/16" hose that has 50psi on it......

I'm talking about the hard line. I've always called flexible hose....hose but that said, the mid 90's Dodge's flex lines were able to take at least 50psi for the injection system on those.

My factory line is my return line and my stainless steel 3/8" fuel line is my supply line and it rakes 4 bar, 54psi with no issue so far.

That is terrible! Insurance or not, think about the time and money spent on getting it restored to enjoy. And then this happens.

I'm running AN fittings with ptfe braided hose and it does give me peace of mind.

More likely, plastic fuel filter burst.

Had this happen on my wife's Granny's 72 Valiant /6 20 years ago. Short rubber line between the hard line from the tank and the fuel pump.
A low mileage 4 door but a beautiful survivor destroyed. I still kick myself over not noticing it.
