Troubleshooting
Connector will not securely attach to the fuel line.
Verify the fuel line's inner diameter matches the connector specification (3mm ID nylon or 5mm ID rubber). Ensure the end of the fuel line is cut cleanly and is not damaged. The line may need to be warmed slightly to ease insertion.
Fuel leak at the connection point.
Check that the fuel line is fully seated on the connector barb. Inspect the Viton seals for damage or debris. Ensure the working pressure does not exceed the 5 bar maximum.
Difficulty in disconnecting the fuel line.
Ensure you are pressing the release tabs inward sufficiently. Debris may be obstructing the release mechanism; try gently wiggling the connection while pressing the tabs.
