Thanks! The parts stores around me don't have 'em so I ordered a set.

Got my line and fittings in today. I'm only missing the tubing adapter for the bottom fitting. It will come in tomorrow. I've already trimmed it up, but I think once I get the bottom fitting on tomorrow I will be cutting an inch or two off the line because it's pretty long. But better to be too long than too short. Luckily I have extra hose just in case.

Do those metal clips go inside the fuel fitting or do they slide on the outside? The plastic quick disconnect definitely comes out too easy, I don't want it bursting off under pressure. What about the metal retaining clips that are hold it in place on the outside? Anyone reuse those or use something similar?

Will post another picture when it's all installed tomorrow



EDIT: ok there's been some misleading information here. I just pulled off the fuel line and the bottom doesn't need a tubing to AN adapter, it needs a quick disconnecting fitting adapter. So TWO quick disconnect fitting adapters are required, not one.

EDIT 2: I'm going to be reusing the metal retainer clips from the factory line also.

Completed my fuel line. Turns out the tubing to AN adapter worked, I just prefer to have a quick disconnect. Oh well, I hooked it up anyway..





And one of 3 horrible kinks in my stock line
