Traced line to sensor and for whatever reason the plastic tube/line broke at the fitting. Can I jus loosen fitting and install line and tighten fitting back down.? What holds the line inside fitting ??

there is a ferrule that clamps it in if its the barrel type you will have to buy a new one of its a cone type some time it will work again . but im betting you will need a new ferrule.
