• The fitting consists of a brass 90 degree elbow
and an plastic tube.
• The tube reaches to near the bottom of the fuel
tank and is shrunk onto the fitting.
• When diagnosing a fuel starvation issue do not
over-look the possibility of an air leak between
the elbow and the pick-up tube.
• For installation: install the bushing first, lubricate
the fitting with diesel fuel, and install it in the
bushing.
