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.
HOW does this fitting work?
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 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...
