Default Fuel line woes

Well, that mass of fittings you gave me should have worked Ellis. But as it turns out it didn't. All the threads were right, but the fuel line ATI gives you needs a tube to stick into the fitting to seal.

So I need to make a 10' return line to get this thing finished. I'll order the 20' kit from Summit Monday unless I can find one locally tomorrow morning (& then you'll end up with 10' of line to go with the fittings I gave you....) but I will likely need the parts you gave me to hook up to the factory stuff.

I'll say one thing, the ATI pump makes a NICE puddle on the floor when 1 line doesn't seal.

Yeah, not sure how long it will be before I feel comfortable closing the garage door with a gas furnace. Got a fan running now......

Man, this seems to be a comedy of errors. It may be next year before you actually get to put that thing on the track.

No joy Ellis. Not sure what this morphedite POS line is that ATI gives you, but nothing seems to fit it. FRACK
