Installation Procedure
- Apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male fuel pipe end.

- Once installed, pull on both sides of the quick-connect fitting in order to make sure the connection is secure.
Caution: Always apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male pipe ends before connecting the fuel pipe fittings in order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury. This will ensure proper reconnection and prevent a possible fuel leak. During normal operation, the O-rings located in the female connector will swell and may prevent proper reconnection if not lubricated.
