02 FLHTCUI. Noticed a small gas leak around the little rubber o-ring on my quick-connect fuel supply line fitting. Pulled it off under pressure, yes,gas when't all over. Wrong way to do it. Now i cannot get it back on.It will not click back into quick-connect check valve supply fitting.Yes, i am pushing up on the chrome sleeve as i try to push up on the supply line. Close, but not going up and in all the way. What am i doing wrong?

 

Probably broke it. You may have to buy a new fuel supply line

 

I've had that problem before, I don't know that you are doing anything wrong. Just keep moving it around and pushing on it until it goes into place, then pull down on the sleeve and make sure it is down all the way. Usually they go right on, but not always, you just have to work it until it does.

 

Or the check valve itself. The o-ring isn't sold separately but can be grabbed from another source.

 

Link is bad

 

Not knowing who's disconnect you have but... the one I have has a check valve inside that stops the flow of gas when disconnected. Thats the reason I bought it. Its possible your check valve/spring has broken and wont allow a re-connect to happen. Generally Id suggest buying a new one.

 

Yea it won't let me put the whole link in for some reason. Anyhow, Ronnie's changed their microfiche site and it is now easier to get pn#'s

 

Ya might be able to see what is going on if you get close with a lighter.

JK!!! DO NOT PLEASE!!!!

 

Yes it did stop the flow of gas after a few seconds. If i pull the o-ring off, it will snap right in. Thats how close it is.

 

Ok... then that means the cold in Tahoe has gotten to it & made the o-ring hard.
Lube the o-ring, get a hair dryer & warm up the o-ring & connection.
It should snap together after being heated....

BE CAREFUL w/ the hair dryer & gas fumes !
