Default Fuel lines

When installing my engine I noticed the fuel fittings were not working as they should so I lock wired them as an added precaution. Think this will work?

Personally, I would replace those.

Default Quick disconnect

Been doing some research but can't find the answer. My fuel rail supply is 3/8" which is 6AN i believe and the return is 5/16" which is 5AN. My question is: will the Russell fitting 644123 fit both lines?

The fitting will not fit both lines, but they make a fitting for each size.

Default Quick disconnect

Thanks! How did I miss that? Explorer has become just about useless on my computer with overprints, crashes and deletes.

I bought the orginal Russels, then the threaded ones, and finally got the EARLS. I'm DONE with Russel.

Russell makes threaded conversion pieces, which is included in the link.

What are the PNs for the Earls threaded 3/8 & 5/16 ends? I cannot find anything in their FI section except quick connects with retainer clip, mimic of factory retainer...

I agree, skip the plastic fittings.
