KG Parts and AN Connector Question - Fuel Lines
I ordered a KG Parts fuel kit and later upgraded the kit to include lines to the stock hard lines.
The first setup I received had a barbed fitting. No brainer - hook it to the stock rubber lines. The second line I received had a crazy AN fitting with a plastic insert inside. It looked so cool I ordered another one and figured I could figure it out... Anyhoo I can't. :scratch: HOW does this fitting work? http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a70...s/IMG_0496.jpg My first thought was it would "snap" into place but it doesn't. Also - looking at the firewall from the front of the car are the hard lines (from left to right) Fuel Supply - Fuel Return - Charcoal Canister? |
those are for fuel rails with snap fittings ... like mustangs etc...
|
^^^ Maybe but why are they supplied with my kit?
I have heard of these type connectors being supplied in lieu of the barbed fittings so they must hook to the stock hard lines somhow? |
Those work well as long as 20 years from now you don't have to disconnect it. I personally like them as it's quick to disconnect/connect as long as the last "retard" didn't nip at it picks. Regardless though, plastic gets brittle over time no matter what. The last 07 STI I worked on had those if I remember correctly...
|
^^^ So how do these go on?
Seems there must be a piece that I don't have. Maybe a missing a ferrule or something? I have two of the sleeves and two plastic inserts. Somehow they attach to the hardlines or what? |
They slip right onto the hardlines and "clip on."
