Fuel Line Disconnect Fittings: Installation
WARNING:
In order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury, before connecting fuel pipe fittings, always apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male pipe end. This will ensure proper reconnection and prevent a possible fuel leak. During normal operation, the "O" rings located in the female connector will swell and may prevent proper reconnection if not lubricated.
Apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male pipe end. Push both sides of the fitting together to cause the retaining tabs to snap into place. Once installed, pull on both sides of the fitting to make sure the connection is secure. Install the retainer over the quick-connect fitting.
