Quick-Connect Fittings

Quick-connect Fittings:

Quick-connect type fittings provide a simplified means of installing and connecting fuel system components. There are two types of quick-connect fittings, each used at different locations in the fuel system. Each type consists of a unique female socket and a compatible male connector. O-rings, located inside the female socket, provide the fuel seal. Integral locking tabs or fingers hold the fittings together. The quick-connect fittings used at the fuel filter and other connections at the rear of the vehicle have hand releasable locking tabs. The fittings used at the engine fuel pipes have locking tabs that require a special tool to release.
