    rust on a fuel rail

    I have a bit of surface rust on my fuel rails - They don't leak anywhere at all, there's just some corrosion happening externally..


    Are these things available anywhere or should I make this one look at nice as I can? As far as I know it's not rotten on the inside anywhere (I have no reason to believe it is so)

    I'd use a chemical rust dissolves and check for pitting. No pitting of note, no worries


    But I have never seen a rusted to death fuel rail.
