A17090200 (engine kit that includes fuel rail hoses). the subject hoses and connectors were components of certain clean fuel 8.1 liter propane fuel systems and were supplied exclusively to blue bird corporation for installation on vision model type c school buses built with the 8.1 liter propane fuel system. the hose line can separate from the fitting end located on the chassis supply/return hoses and on the injector/return hoses.
