Default speed inc quick disconnect

How is the quick disconnect supposed to stay on the hard line in the fender well? mine doesn't want to stay down on it.

Mine was a tight fit also, had to push pretty hard to make it seat. Don't glue it. Make sure the plastic clip is spread outward when fully seated.

Put a little oil on the o-ring inside. It'll help the fitting to "pop" into place...

Well I got the plastic disconnect to go onto the hard line but the blue AN fitting that goes over the plastic disconnect wants to move toward the two sides that don't have plastic clips holding it in. is there supposed to be a rubber o-ring that will seal up the fitting to the hard line?

When I installed mine I just pushed the AN quick connect fitting onto the hardline.

From your last post it sounds like you took the plastic disconnect out of the metal housing. Am I reading that correct?
