URGENT: OK to lube fuel hoses with oil to get them on?
 

I'm trying my damndest to get this f@)#&%g hose on my new fuel pulsation dampener, but it looks like it goes on almost an inch and a half. So far I've gotten it about half an inch, but I was wondering if it was alright to lube it with some oil so it could slip on more easily. Has anyone tried this? Would you recommend it?

TIA

P.S. I'm a big fan of doing things right the first time.

I'd do it and I've done it. Just don't go overboard :p:
Actually, I used my premix oil and it worked jsut fine. Besides, even if you use regular oil, I don't see how using that small amount needed to slip on the hose would affect the pulsation dampener.

:bigeyes: OMFG that was way easier! Thx, I got it on with just one twist.

Dammit, I forgot to wipe my hands before I started typing.

haha :crackup:

just make sure you tighten it good so it doesn't slip off as easy as it went on.

Some good words of wisdom right there. :D
