Quick-Connect Fittings: Connecting

  1. Inspect the quick-connect fitting body and fuel system components for damage. Replace as necessary.
  2. Prior to connecting any quick-connect fitting to components, check condition of fitting and components. Clean parts with a lint-free cloth. Lubricate with clean engine oil.
  3. Insert the quick-connect fitting onto the fuel tube or fuel system component until the built-in stop on the fuel tube or component rests against the back of fitting.
  4. Continue pushing until a click is felt.
  5. Perform the specific instructions if equipped with the following quick-connectors:
    • Redundant Latch Single Button Type Fitting:  Push redundant latch until it locks into position in the quick-connect fitting.
    • Single Tab Type Fitting:  Push new tab down until it locks into position in the quick-connect fitting.
    • Latch Clip Type Fitting:  Install latch clip (snaps into position). If latch clip will not snap into position, this indicates the quick-connect fitting is not properly installed onto fuel system component, recheck the connection. 
  6. Verify a locked condition by firmly pulling on the quick-connect fitting connection of the fuel system component.
