Fuel Line Coupler: Description and Operation
QUICK-CONNECT FITTINGS
Different types of quick-connect fittings are used to attach the various fuel system components, lines and tubes. These are: a single-button type, a
two-button type, a pinch type, a single-tab type, a two-tab type or a plastic retainer ring type. Some are equipped with safety latch clips. Some may
require the use of a special tool for disconnection and removal. Refer to Quick-Connect Fittings Removal/Installation for more information.
CAUTION:
-
Before separating a quick-connect fitting, pay attention to what type of fitting is being used by referring to Quick-Connect Fitting Removal. This
will prevent unnecessary fitting or fitting latch breakage.
-
The interior components (O-rings, clips) of quick-connect fittings are not serviced separately, but new plastic spacers and latches are available for
some types. If service parts are not available, do not attempt to repair the damaged fitting or fuel line (tube). If repair is necessary, replace the
complete fuel line (tube) assembly.
