OK, I...er a friend of mine, lost the injector retaining clips which hold
the injector to the fuel rail and the fuel line retaining clips which hold
the supply and return fuel lines to the fuel rail. Its a 93 JGC I-6. Went
to the dealer and they can order the injector clips, but suggested that the
other clips would be more difficult and I would probably have to buy the
whole fuel line assemblies. LIAR!

My dil...er my friend's dilemma is mainly the fuel line clips. Once the
fuel rail is bolted down, I don't see how the injector clips make any
difference. Besides the dealer has those. But without the fuel line clips
those puppies will shoot off and there would be gasoline everywhere. I
could rig it with a fair amount of certainty that it would work without
problem, but I don't like that. BTW in replacing the fuel filter it was
discovered that the two clips on that are the same size as the two needed
for the fuel rail. I'd bet that they are also the clips for the fuel pump,
but I don't feel like dropping the fuel tank to check.

Does any one know what part that is and where I could get it? I think the
dealer is fibbin since it's highly probable that these clips break all the
time when the fuel filter or fuel pump or injectors are replaced. We all
know at least two of those go bad on this vehicle quite a bit. What do they
do when a tech breaks one...replace the whole fuel line assembly? I doubt
it. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated. No preaching, the
parts were placed in a plastic bag just like the other parts that were taken
off. How these came up missing???? The world may never know.

I assume your talking about these. (mine are moved around a bit to
accomodate a larger pressure regulator)

http://www.revbeergoggles.com/temp/fuel-rail-1.jpg

The smaller replacement clip that holds the return line on is Mopar 1-83502745
That's two o rings, a spacer, and a plastic retainer clip. I don't know
a source for the supply line clip but it is available.
$13.33 is the chryslerpartsdirect.com price

The fuel line quick-disconnects are the same as the ones used on the fuel filter.
NAPA might have the parts.

According to the service book the quick disconnect guts and clip are supposed
to be replaced each time so I doubt they are only attached to new fuel lines.

I would replace the injector clips, there is enough room for them to
move out and you don't want a leak there either.
