Theres TWO (2) O-rings inside the fitting. One deeeeeep inside, and the one you see.

You can replace only the O-rings. A small, bent paperclip helps in removing the one deep inside.

Replace with Viton or Nitril, NOT NATURAL RUBBER.

Tools are also made to do it easily. (Fuel-Tool $80)

Great!!! ,just coming back from the dealership, part#11323 was totally not the one needed,
i bought the complete fuel line (just in case since i'm 1 hour away from the dealer) and got 2 o'rings not OEM since he couldn't find part#.

Back home , i changed the little culprit and decide to plug it with the old fuel line and...Voilà
no leaking ,ignition on -no leaking ,crank it up -no leaking ,funny how a .50cents part can ruin a ride.

Does the dealer can take back the fuel line (it's still in the original bag unopen) or if harley dealer have a strict policy of final sale no refund

Depends on the dealer, but I've had a dealer OK a return on a part that was powder coated.
Although I was out the cost of powder coating.
