Stupid question... need answer quick

Tried the search function, but keep getting "Page cannot be displayed". I tried typing several different things. How can I tell if my NX kit has 4AN fitting or 6AN fittings.

I know this is a somewhat stupid question, but I'm on hold on the phone attempting to buy a Nitrous, and fuel pressure guage for the a-pillar of the car. Thanks and sorry for the stupid question.

What size wrench for the nut on your line? 9/16 wrench would be 4an, and 5/8 wrench would be 6an. You might have to call them back.

Okay, thanks Robert. I told the guy that I would call him back tomorrow. I check the size now.

Oohps, I went to garage and stuck wrench on two lines I had? what the heck is a 5/8 nut then (I checked again), as it looks to be a -6 line attached, and is not a -8 as I checked that line also?

The line appears to fit a 9/16 wrench, so I'm going to go with 4AN. Thanks for all the help on my newbie questions...I have had a lot of them

You live and learn, right!

Thanks for making me feel a little more comfortable with the noob questions. I'm going to start the install this weekend, and I'm sure I have more. I just wish I had the a-pillar gauges so I cound install those as well. I do have a print out of all the install instructions needed from NX's site, and a print out of how to test your noids from Roberts site. I'm sure that will get me in the right direction
