Quick Connect Fittings

Quick connect style fuel fittings provide a simplified means of installing and connecting fuel system components. Depending on the vehicle model, there are two types of quick connect fittings. Different types of fittings are used at different locations in the fuel system. Each type of quick connect fitting consists of a unique female connector and a compatible male fuel pipe end. O-rings located inside of the female connector provide a leak proof seal. Integral locking tabs or fingers hold the quick connect fittings together. A special tool is used to service the quick connect fittings.
